And all the foods represent different nations. The burgers were America, goulash Russia, matzo/bagels Israel, sausage Germany, croissant France. It's actually quite clever.

I liked the cold war bit in the middle. I was totally confused by that bit the first time through.

Excuse me now, while I go murder some meat to eat.
