I whispered hyena over one teenage book (the author, apparently, is American, but writes about Europe). There, the heroine, on the will of the plot, who came to look for someone in St. Petersburg, was insidiously fed borsch and red ivory in quantity. The girl suffered so much - so suffered the inexhaustibility of such meals and secretly eaten away in the local "bad" McDonald's!
