“Muh Soviet in a supermarket” story in 2023? My comment was also about McDonald’s in the USSR, so they’re feeling super exceptionalist over fast food slop.
Link You can’t see this through Hexbear because they were banned for racism, war crime apologism and ableism 
In the unlikely chance this story is true then the reality is that yeah, someone coming from the Eastern bloc might initially be overwhelmed to tears by the illusion of choice provided by western supermarkets. Thats all thats going on though. Just being overwhelmed by the flashiness of it. That doesnt prove its a good thing or that capitalism is better.
There was also a ton of propaganda spread to Eastern Bloc countries by the US and its allies, and there were obviously people who believed everything was better in the West. Parenti mentions this in Blackshirts and Reds as one of the biggest problems for AES countries.
We just had this discussion as well with the ‘bananas under socialism’ discourse.
You get choice because others don’t.
The GDR imported some food items from Vietnam and other fraternity socialist countries. Those items were often not so well stocked in the FRG. You can ask around in urban centers after gentrification today would they rather have bananas only rarely but a flat that is theirs or bananas but no flat?
