Lenin. Bear with me. Life in Imperialist Russia truly sucked. There was no middle class, and the peasantry was literally starving and quite a lot of it was homeless while the royal family lived in super-luxury. It was ripe for Marxism. There was a point when Lenin was a wide-eyed idealist, before he had any actual power. I like the young man who wanted to feed the peasantry, and was an anti-Imperialist rebel, not the old Oligarch.  
MF work of socialist or communist literature. (Just your MF of the lot, even if you still don’t like it all that much over, say, the Federalist Papers.)

Taking that really sweet blended yogurt, and using it as a pancake topping. Makes two foods that don’t work alone work excellently together.

If that doesn’t count, then I give you my mother’s mac & cheese recipe: sautee a chopped yellow onion, and dice 5 or so peeled Italian tomatoes (or buy a can of diced tomatoes). Layer cooked macaroni, sharp Cheddar, onion, and tomatoes in a casserole dish, and bake at 350’F for 30 minutes. It is addictively good. It is so not mac & cheese from a box.  
MF book of the Harry Potter series.

_Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban_. I liked subsequent books, but they got too detailed.

There were some warehouses close to where I used to work in downtown Durham NC that had graffiti done by art school students that I really liked, but those eventually got painted over. There was also a youth prison next to the NC Museum of Art in Raleigh that was decommissioned. They let graffiti artists do their thing to the emptied buildings, but those were eventually torn down, and the bricks were recycled into outdoor sculptures such as menhirs and arcs.
