That is not true. In Bulgaria there were generally full shelves in the grocery stores during socialism. There were some hard to get things like coca kola that caused lines but otherwise all basic foodstuffs were easy to get and quite affordable. However I have heard from other people that grew up in socialist countries that Bulgaria had it easier than most in that respect. In the transition to capitalism things got quite worse. Then there were empty shelves there was rationing, prices went up drastically, etc.
