"That was inedible garbage, and there wasn't enough of it!" A former guest of the US Penal System tells the story of prison food.
LACJ food is slightly
worse than prison food, but in the hole it gets really awful…
instead of a thrice-daily plastic tray half-full of various kinds of
nasty, cold, starchy gloop, you get a daily "jute ball" to eat (at
least, that's how it was in the '80s). Jute balls are made by taking
the three meals that everybody else gets to eat, tossing them into a
grinder and grinding everything up together, and then baking the
result.
