In Cuba there are many jokes related to coffee, mainly about the subsidised coffee, which is sold at a lower price than what it normally costs in the shop or in any private shop, but it is also of lower quality. What happens is that lately this packet of coffee is sold less and less frequently, and this is often not because there is a problem of availability with the coffee itself, but with what the coffee beans are mixed with, which is made with pea beans, umjum, coffee with peas....

And lately in Cuba what is scarce is the pea to mix the coffee, and that always unleashes a sea of memes and jokes because if there is one thing we know how to do, it is to laugh at ourselves. Once they gave the news that the peas came on a ship from Canada and supposedly the place where the ship was was frozen, so it couldn't leave and that's why they didn't sell subsidised coffee for several months. That news unleashed many jokes and jokes on the internet and since then they haven't stopped, something always happens with the peas that delays the distribution of coffee "por la libreta" as we say here 😅.

Personally, I always make fun of my husband for the excessive amount of coffee he always drinks, he serves it in a mug, and I almost always tell him that what he needs is to serve it in a bucket 🪣 because it's too much.

Here is my cup of coffee, and yes, I know it's a bit big too...
