Vikki, there have been several topics dedicated to Russian food on this channel. Look through these ones:

You can relax, there is no need for gearing up your stomach before coming to Russia Very happy. We don't eat snakes or mice, at least most of us Smile. There are dishes to any taste in Russian cuisine, but even if you prefer European food, there is no problem buying pizza or burger. But I still hope you will enjoy our traditional food.
