I mean, in this case, yes, but I am neither Russian nor a child of the USSR, and I know both Kvass and Kin-dza-dza (which I introduced to my wife, who was born in a post-soviet state). Not all that obscure!

Interesting. You must be from a CIS (ex-USSR) country then.

  • Anywhere there are immigrants from Eastern Europe in the US, you can find Kvass. It's everywhere!

    GP commenter may have had a friend from Belarus, or seen it on a store shelf and been curious

  • Nope. Born in the U.K. to British parents. Got around a bit over the years, but never lived in an eastern bloc state.
