MODERATORS
They may not have been rationed (ie one could buy them as long as they had the money and the patience). This only shows rationed items.
Title needs to be edited then.
It's a recurring problem with ration images - I had this song-and-dance with the British WW2 ration pic too. But I don't know how to express it concisely for more people to understand if they don't already understand that most rationing systems do not ration everything.
"Items affected by rationing, Poland 1980s. (Monthly)"
Changed the title.
I like it.
This guy3 rations. (or at least talks about it well!)
