Which is why Cubans now all enjoy their world-class coffee sourced from the bountiful crops harvested in Havana's traffic medians and grassy knolls. Ah - but I forget myself. Castro outlawed speaking of that masterpiece of central planning - so it never happened. And that, and that alone - that it never happened and such a plan never existed- is why Cubans do not enjoy the aforementioned, caffeinated bounty. The CIA must have made the whole story up. Yes. Yes, that's the ticket. The CIA.
