Cuba is having a small issue with tissue -- there just isn't enough to go around. The city known for baseball, cigars, and Buena Vista Social Club has found itself in the midst of a toilet paper crisis. The company that manufactures the countries toilet paper supply, Cimex, has said they are currently unable to produce or import enough raw materials to make more toilet paper until at least December.

"The corporation has taken all the steps so that at the end of the year there will be an important importation of toilet paper," said a Cimex spokesperson. Meanwhile, President Raul Castro announced budget cuts last week that slashed imports by 20 percent. That, combined with the raw materials shortage, has led to the rapid disappearance of toilet paper from store shelves. Until more supplies are produced, citizens are encouraged to conserve toilet paper by tearing off fewer squares, switching from two-ply to one-ply or using cigar wrappers. It looks like there will be a black market for TP in the near future, so if you're headed to Cuba any time soon, bring a 24-pack of TP and you might fetch a nice price for it. Good luck Cuba, and here's hoping you don't get the runs.
