Letter from Doug Dunn on daily life in Colombia 1955
In a March 16 1955 letter from Colombia Doug Dunn describes daily markets where bargaining replaces prices, fresh beef sold in two grades with bone or boneless, and meals cooked on open fires. He notes scarce tableware, shared dishes, and rude service while detailing sanitation concerns and his partial relief from local diet with a Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles. He closes with simple recipes for fried bananas, hominy with milk and sugar, and wishes for more soup and bread recipes.
