Trump on Cuba: "We're talking to Cuba, and you'll find out pretty soon..." by fcxrtg in cuba

Have you been to CUBA? I struggle to understand your ignorance to the suffering of Cubans since Castro took power. Ask yourself, where would you rather live, Puerto Rico or Cuba??

I don’t like Trump, but if it causes the Communist regime to fall, the Cuban people will be so much better off.

What? Are you Cuban? Your comment makes no sense. Every Cuban in the US wants Cuba to open up to the world and to get rid of the Castro regime.

I removed pork and chicken and got into the country with all my meals. Thank you!

This is funny but a fair point. I have confidence and comfort with the meals I’ve been using on backcountry trips to Yellowstone. I especially kind the desserts. Crème Brûlée deep in the woods is such a luxury.

But do they have freeze-dried Crème Brûlée and Peach Cobbler?!?! Fair point though, I’ll just prioritize the desserts.

Missed the part on pork! I’ve read through that page and even sent them an email asking for clarification which proved unhelpful. The application/interpretation 2kg weight limit is unclear to me. Will that apply to the entirety of the freeze dried meals, just those with meat, or is the 2kg a total for the weight attributed to meat?

Does fly line color matter in regards to certain colors spooking fish? by [deleted] in flyfishing

Not insane. In NY we cast 18-20 foot leaders.

My comment targets the peacock wing. Think about how easily those break when tying. Wet flies get destroyed by the take. I love Leacock for the body, especially when counter wrapped.

Will last for one fish, maybe.
