I wanted to post this in the "articles" category but the drop down menu didn't show that option.
"82 per cent of the nation’s households are now living in poverty and 93 per cent said their income was not enough to cover their food needs.
Venezuela was plunged into economic crisis in 2014 when a global fall in oil prices crippled its oil-orientated economy. Since then, inflation has soared to 800 per cent and the currency has collapsed.
This has made it difficult to import basic goods like food, creating shortages and price hikes on the items that are available. As a result, Venezuelans are increasingly relying on cheap foods like potatoes."
