Its good to see even back then they paid attention to including vodka and cigs in the "food" ration as we all know now they are essential for a balanced and nutritious diet.π

I went to Poland a couple of years ago and they had supermarket aisles lined with vodka from one side to the other.
There are Cubans living here who could tell you worse stories, like secretly raising a pig in the bathtub to get enough protein, putting condoms on pizza as a substitute for cheese that melts in the heat, or going to jail for having two gas cylinders for βhoarding.β
