Associations: HasMany with a BelogsTo inside it - cakephp

Question

Hi I am trying out CakePHP 2.5 and created the blog from the tutorial.
I'm adding comments to blog posts, each comment has a user, but I can't seem to pull back the user information.
in my user model
public $hasMany = array(
'Comment' => array(
'className' => 'Comment',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'dependent' => false,
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => '',
'limit' => '',
'offset' => '',
'exclusive' => '',
'finderQuery' => '',
'counterQuery' => ''
),
'Post' => array(
'className' => 'Post',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'dependent' => false,
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => '',
'limit' => '',
'offset' => '',
'exclusive' => '',
'finderQuery' => '',
'counterQuery' => ''
)
);
in my comments model
public $belongsTo = [
'User' => [
'className' => 'User',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
],
'Posts' => [
'className' => 'Posts',
'foreignKey' => 'post_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
]
];
and in the postmodel, post being whenre I want to display the comment and the username
public $belongsTo = [
'User' => [
'className' => 'User',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
]
];
public $hasMany = [
'Comment' => [
'className' => 'Comment',
'order' => 'Comment.created DESC',
'foreignKey'=> 'post_id'
]
];
viewing a post brings back the following comment information
'Comment' =>
array (size=1)
0 =>
array (size=6)
'id' => string '1' (length=1)
'content' => string 'This is a comment' (length=17)
'created' => string '2015-10-23 15:59:55' (length=19)
'modified' => string '2015-10-23 15:59:55' (length=19)
'user_id' => string '1' (length=1)
'post_id' => string '2' (length=1)
But this doesn't include the user information as I expected.
My question is how do I pull the user information for each comment within a post

Sorry, I don't have points for commenting. Could you post your find() method? Also, do you have recursion turned on, or is it off (turned to -1) and you are using contain to grab associated models?
