By the sounds of it I'd starve in Russia.
What I mentioned are just cold appetizers, used to "chase" vodka. "Food" means hot soup and something like potatoes with fried chicken or meat.
Some things are used just after taking a shot, to follow a glas of vodka. You know, vodka isn't the tastiest thing when you drink it straight without anything else, and this things simply make it go down smooth.
You also can drink vodka without "big meal" if you have black bread, onion,
salo (salted pork fat), etc.
All-time classics is warm vodka from soap-box in an apartment porch with cigarette or "textile" (when you just smell your own sleeve instead of eating something)

One bottle for three men. Everyone knows that halflitre for three means 170g for each one
