A worker from the pasteurization plant in Santiago de Cuba reported on Monday the poor conditions of the cafeteria and the quality of the food served to the employees of the facility.
"Many tables and few chairs, there's hardly anywhere to sit, and look at the food, this isn't even good enough for dogs," expressed the woman with indignation in a complaint that independent journalist Yosmany Mayeta shared on Facebook.
The images shared by the communicator reveal the poor conditions present in this entity in Santiago de Cuba, located on the Caney Road, which is linked to the production of dairy products made from milk.
The images show a large space devoid of chairs and tables, while the quality of the food is very poor.
In May, students at the Capitán Orestes Acosta School of Sports Initiation (EIDE) in Santiago de Cuba reported that the meals they receive at the school, both for lunch and dinner, consist solely of rice and peas.
Mayeta expressed solidarity with the students' request, asking her to publicly share on Facebook the precarious food situation they were facing.
The Cuban government, amidst a deep economic crisis, has been unable to provide decent living conditions for scholarship students or for inmates in correctional institutions.
The worsening living conditions within Cuban prisons have raised concerns among the families of inmates, who have reported inadequate meals, a shortage of medications, deficiencies in hygiene products, and overall unacceptable conditions.
Activist Ania Zamora, mother of Sissi Abascal, a political prisoner sentenced to six years in prison for participating in protests in July 2021, told Martí Noticias that the crisis affects both inmates and their families, who "have to bring them everything."
