Cuban tries steak for the first time is such a MONUMENTAL moment if you understand why. For many (including this cuban man Yoel) the dream is to come to America and taste test steak. Watch his emotional reaction to eating steak.
Why is beef rare in Cuba?
- Legal Restrictions: Beef has been restricted in Cuba due to government policies. In the past, there were laws against slaughtering cattle for personal consumption. Violators could face up to 15 years in jail—a longer term than some murder sentences in the country.
- Scarce Availability: Even today, beef remains scarce in Cuba. Most Cuban recipes and dishes rely on other meats, such as pork, due to these restrictions.
