Medvedev Declares Crab and Pomegranate Salad State Food
Following a recent military consultation, Russian President Medvedev has declared a combination of crab and pomegranate as the official state food.
The meeting took place on Friday in which Medvedev fell in love with the dish, accompanied by macaroni and cheese and a game of telephone tag.
He quickly ordered the government to consolidate all crab and pomegranate importers under state control.
According to sources close to the Kremlin, Medvedev will personally promote a new product he’s calling “Crabagranate.” Initial press releases show the young president with a chef hat and a thumbs up on a small can.
