I remember it very well, This was part of the backwash of the "Bay of Pigs " fiasco,,,,,When the UN invited Castro to New York he was so afraid of being poisoned that he brought his own food aka CHICKENS with him which turned out to be lousy PR .....as the news media had a field day with it trying to make him look like a country bumkin ..........If they succeeded or not , you'll have to decide..........
