"Food Nazis" -- am I the only one who remembers the "Ohta Faction" from the original _Iron Chef_ series?

The Culinary Communism has been portrayed masterfully. The ending of last season really played up towards it, Azami even took rhetoric straight out of Mao's little red book and does it out of "compassion for the many". All who fall in line will be accepted, all who have diverging opinions will be executed (aka. expelled). If his vision really came to life, then I wonder what the people who couldn't afford to go to his expensive restaurants would do since diners and McDonald's wouldn't be allowed. Would it still be allowed to cook your own food at home? But what if you started serving the people next door? The Food KGB would kick down your door and siege your sardines!
