No milk sold in Santiago 681v2a
SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Cuba - February 4 (Lisette
Bravo, APLO / cubanet.sergipeconectado.com) - Government
outlets did not have milk to sell under
the rationing quota between January 25 and
30, explaining there was no milk in the
province.
The milk at controlled prices is only sold
for children up to age 7 and for the old
and those with a prescription from a doctor.
Milk could be had at the dollar stores,
so called because the operate only in hard
currency. A kilogram (2.2 pounds) of powdered
milk goes for 5.20 dollars, about half of
the average monthly salary.
