Fascist Foodies: Franco

In an effort to demystify some of hsitory’s most notorious dictators, we’ve decided to reveal the most relateable quality of one formidible fascist every week: his love of everyon’e favorite junk foods!

Being appointed by God to serve the Spanish people is no easy job, but Sr. Franco managed to keep his energy up with some traditional carbo loading. The tantrum–prone grumpster frequently sought solace in the king of all onion rings, although he was quick to sic the Policía Armada on double dippers. It’s no wonder Spain’s official motto to this day is still “one blooming onion a day keeps the Republican army away!”
