Day 8: Dirt Cookies





That's not chocolate.


It's dirt.




The Associated Press ran this article recently on poverty in Haiti.

Many people in that area eat cookies made of dirt, vegetable shortening and salt as a main food source. It's all they afford for nutrition. And it's especially common amongst children and pregnant women.

I have nothing to complain about. At least I have my rice and beans.
