Funny thing, in France "esquimau" (pronounced "eskimo") is how they call that kind of ice lolly too.

Well, it means we used French word. It was not the first time though, there are many French words in Russian language, in XVIII-XIX centuries it was the language of nobles in Russian Empire after all.
Yes, Russian has a lot of words borrowed from other languages (French, German, Dutch, Turkish)-from the many folks with whom Russians have had contact.
But eskimo is not a French word. In 1921, Christian Kent Nelson, an American of Danish descent, doused a briquette of ice cream with chocolate icing. He called it an "Eskimo pie". (Named after the Eskimo peoples who lived in Alaska.) And the word Eskimo etymologically derives from the Innu-aimun word "ayaskimew" meaning "a person who laces a snowshoe".

Poland on board. It is/was called eskimos (not sure if they still sell them). We had 2 versions, "naked", and covered with something that one could call chocolate
Man, i love this thread. Not only I could look forward to a wonderful game, also got to learn some extra culture in Russia. Seriously though. its always nice to get to know something different about a country from somewhere outside of typical western style media.
actually, the ice lolly/cream shown in the picture was pretty similar as ones in China during 80s and 90s.Yes. Most of the soviet ice lolly was pole or truncated cone form. And it's more suitable for porn game.
Or may be it will be cucumber and moonshine.
In Soviet Russia:
What do you do at the bus stop in winter when the bus is gone for a long time?
Men drink beer, children eat ice cream.

The kid on the right, that ice lolly, in my memory, it had fruit flavour on the outside as a 'bowl', then filled with milk cream on the inside. You could use a little wooden spoon to eat the filling first, then eat the fruity part later. I don't know if the actual product in Russia is similar or not, but that's what I got when i was a small kid back in the late 90s.

That reminds me of "1984." They were rationed something they could call chocolate tooPoland on board. It is/was called eskimos (not sure if they still sell them). We had 2 versions, "naked", and covered with something that one could call chocolate
And I've been told by my elders that in the first years of the dictatorship they ate "chocolate" that tasted like cardboard or something similar.
Today we get upset if the cocoa % is not to our liking, or if it was not produced in a sustainable way

ErosAmor69 since nobody has pointed it out (unless I missed it), RSSU, when one reads it backwards stands for USSR. I am sure it is pure coincidence ... otherwise I would say it is brilliant

Yes, it's sort of Easter Egg or the riddle. For attentive players.ErosAmor69 since nobody has pointed it out (unless I missed it), RSSU, when one reads it backwards stands for USSR. I am sure it is pure coincidence

I really enjoy this one, it's so different from what you usually read! Apart from the decision (which I respect but I would prefer it otherwise) of hiding the genitals, I really have no complaints.

Wait a second! Are the genitals going to be censored all the time?
Are you guys happy now?
