A Cuban in the United States has humorously depicted the various reactions of Cubans upon entering a supermarket for the first time after arriving from the island. In the entertaining video, the user known as @nosly162 showcases different attitudes that many Cubans might relate to, highlighting with humor the stark contrast between the reality of scarcity in Cuba and the abundance found in these supermarkets.
One of the characters she portrays is a Cuban who thinks of his family. At one point, she is seen emotional and even crying in front of shrimp, while saying, "I remember my mom."
Another character it represents is the "speculator," who makes video calls to their family in Cuba, showcasing each product from the supermarket.
In another part of the video, the creator expresses amazement at the variety of products and exclaims, with surprise and excitement: "How long has it been since I saw mandarins?" This reflects the reality of many Cubans who, upon arriving in another country, rediscover basic items that are often scarce or hard to find in Cuba.
Finally, he also portrays the typical Cuban who claims that "I had everything in Cuba."
The video has elicited laughter among the Cuban community, who resonate with those reactions in supermarkets in the United States.
