Can I even refer to this slop as food? I'm not sure. I googled up prison food and this is what I found. I also found a few articles stating the following:
Anger about meals is the No. 1 reason for inmate uprisings, according to corrections officials, and menu changes imperil safety for prison guards, inmates and the public in general.
The state now pays $2.67 for three meals a day for each inmate. Lawmakers in the House want to reduce that cost to $2.30 a day.
The preparation is haphazard. They're supposed to wear hairnets and gloves. You find hair in your food and you find a Band-Aid in your food. Things are so overcooked it's mush, or it's not cooked at all."
Wow, is it that unappetizing there that it really is the number one reason for inmate uprisings? And $2.30 a day in Florida. I'm trying really hard but I can't imagine what kind of food I can get for $2.30 for 3 meals. I know there's more to worry about than food, but to me food is a huge priority. Some days I come home after a long and hard day of work and the only thing getting me through the day is thinking about what kind of food I am going to eat or cook later. Its one of my biggest passions and pleasures, if not number one. I'm a true foodie.
I've come up with a list of food that I must eat at least once more before I leave. This list is very very long. I'm going to fatten myself up, no joke. I'll eat so much, I'll have enough fat on my body to last me the years that I'm away without having to eat that garbage. Unless people can bring you food to eat, that would be great. Does anyone know if thats allowed?
You're going to prison because you did something bad. You don't get to complain about bad food. It's prison because it's a punishment. Not a vacation.
ReplyDeleteTo anonymous above...you are ridiculous. Are you serious??? Did she say it was a vacation? Does anyone expect great food in prison? This blog is intended for close friends and its a collection of her feelings. Obviously, you don't need to be reading this and making unintelligent comments. Natasha Kim
