My Mom sent this photo to us while visiting Cuba recently. No (or very little) shipping/transportation costs involved, no USDA or state inspection, no plastic packaging, the ultimate food transparency, consumer verified, and farmer-direct experience, and my guess is amazing flavor if the farmers took decent care of the pig in question.
Now that Cuba is opening up to America, will they be able to retain their distinct local flavor and production efficiencies in the face of NAFTA and the lure of selling to more lucrative (and restricted) markets?
