Not because there was no competition. There’s plenty of competition for the crap we are surrounded by today, always 50 different brands of everything.

I'm talking about USSR products. In the USSR, there was genuinely no competition. No branding. Literally whatever your local factory churned out.
USA: Tyson, Purdue, oscar meyer, store brand chicken, etc. available nationwide
