Most of the Haiti people today turned into eating mud cake. They first strain the mud to remove stones in it, put some mixture of vegetables and then they let it dry under the sun. Though this mud cake is rich in calcium, eating it in regular basis is not good for their health, said the health specialists. Today, this is the food being eaten by these poorest people in the hemisphere.

Even before, Haiti is already poor and it is getting poorer and poorer. Though the United Nation extended help for this country, it is not yet enough to sustain the continuously growing population.

The economic downfall of the United States has affected many countries and Haiti is one of the most affected one. The increased price on energy (coal products) has lead most if not all of the products being sold in Haiti to increase prices too.
