Don't know about this one...seems to be plenty of bread around here and I haven't heard any Cuban telling me otherwise. 

Are you sure it is bread? Could be another substitute cheese scenario..... :P

So they've hijacked all the bread for the festival participants? Maybe the 'aged blue bread' available only at the premium gala dinner will be especial.

I'm on the ground and can confirm there are two markets...the public one which is mentioned above i.e. govt rations is gone, there's no bread 🍞🍞 and the Pvt market- there is some but you need to have $$$USD on hand
