There are certain brands that have widely recognized in Russia, in large part thanks to their clever\u2014or ridiculous\u2014advertising. Of course, this list will vary for different people, but I’d like to share, in no particular order, some famous Russian food brands.<\/p>\n

Note that when I say “Russian,” I mostly mean “widely known and marketed in Russia.” The current owner of the brand may well be a large multinational.<\/p>\n

“\u0411\u0430\u0301\u043b\u0442\u0438\u043c\u043e\u0440” (yes, like the city in Maryland) is a brand initially famous for its ketchup. As many other Russians, I first learned about this brand because it sponsored a popular comedy show “\u0413\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0434\u043e\u0301\u043a<\/a>” (“Small Town”), which ran from the 90s through the 2010s. Here is one of the brand’s recurring segments.<\/p>\n
