Blackmarket Pop-Tarts?

When I was in BiH during the war, I'd see repackaged food, stuff they don't eat or produce, in consumer sized bags in the grocery shops. It was obvious it had been food aid from the US via the UN.

The day after I got to Saigon in 1967, I was walking around in a daze. I walked by a sidewalk vendor who was selling ripstop fatigues, skivvies, socks, caps, etc., all of which were still wrapped in QM cellophane. They made no attempt to cover up what they were doing. I saw a lot of Army vehicles with signs that said in English and Vietnamese: If you see this vehicle stopped on the street, call this number! How many billions of tax dollars have gone down the drain in this manner?
