  Honestly sounds better than American prison food. At least this sort of diet will keep you in somewhat decent health.

    One of the catering companies I worked for was in the running for a contract to provide food for 3 for-profit prisons. My boss showed me some of the menus he was working on for it and I nearly fell over laughing because he’s doing stuff like “Pan seared salmon with farro and grilled vegetable salad.” Apparently no one had told him the target food cost was 7 cents per meal.

      Those contracts are predetermined anyway. It’s all part of the scam of for-profit prisons.

      I’ve seen some pictures of inmates food online and the best way to describe is probably “looks like state-sponsored school lunches, except far worse”.
