      “Communists do not have spices!”

      Well that’s an argument I haven’t read before. Yeah, we let people suffer and die because they cannot buy food, but our system has no alternatives because… we have spices. Sorry, you have to die poor, my food neeeds spices.

      What are you talking about? Vietnamese food is delicious. So is Cuban food. There’s a reason why there’s a ton of Vietnamese Pho and Cuban food restaurants in the U.S.

      I used to live in the San Fernando Valley in L.A. and there was a Cuban bakery in Burbank, which was probably the most popular bakery in the Valley. Huge lines. My wife once waited two hours to get me a tres leches cake for my birthday.

      So, again, what are you talking about?

      So clearly the alternative is to let the rich drive species into extinction to eat something rare, while the poor don’t even get flavorless gruel without justifying their existence.
