Tell me you live with a newcomer without saying: "Don't throw them away"

The recycling culture came to the home of Yenny, a Cuban who lives in Houston who just brought her mother from the Island.

The lady, accustomed to general scarcity and extreme savings, does not lose the habit of saving anything that may be useful to her, especially if it is utensils used in the kitchen.

"Tell me that you live with a newcomer without telling me that you live with a newcomer," Yenny expressed in a video she shared on her TikTok account.

The young woman found her mother scrubbing a plastic container that, she said, was good for storing her clothes and earrings, and she had already done the same with a knob that "is used to pour the rice, the sugar."

"That's thrown away, mommy," said her daughter, laughing.

"Oh, girl, how are you going to throw that away, are you stupid?" she responded.

At the girl's insistence, the lady responded that she was not going to throw away any jar. "Can't I put them in a little corner over there," he asked naively.

Finally, the nice dialogue ended with a typical phrase from a Cuban mother. "You want to throw everything away, I'm going to mess you up."

In February, another Cuban shared a funny conversation on TikTok with her relatives who had recently arrived from the island, whom she scolded for being carefully scrubbing a single-use baking tray.

"None of this is thrown away here [...] This was left from shopping," commented the man as he worked on his scrubbing task.

"Don't throw that away, we're going to roast the other leg with it," said his wife while showing another plastic knob that she also planned to save for pouring water.

"These are the problems that exist here: doorknob guard, plastic guard, laticas, knobs, you go too far...", concluded the resident in the United States.
