Can anyone tell me the episode name and when it aired, or the premise for the plot where Mel gets into a heated argument with a Russian (probably a Soviet official) regarding which food is better Mel's Chili or Russian Borscht?

Thanks and God bless America! Jesus is Lord.

Hi,

I'm not 100% sure but the episode in question may be Comrade Mel. If so, this episode is in season 6 and was the 3rd episode. According to TV.com the plot is:

"The gang becomes excited when a Russian ballet troupe comes to Phoenix for a performance, but no one is able to get tickets that is until the troupe's Russian towel boy stops by the diner to pick up dinner and he becomes so enchanted by idea of America he decides to defect and takes refuge in Mel's storeroom."

Hope that helps,

is this something that can be purchased or downloaded from somewhere?
