This morning for breakfeast they got a spoon full of powder eggs and a piece of bread. They get NO fruit or vegtables and the take from the veggie garden all goes to the officers (who make enough to buy their own), except the little the inmates are able to steal for themselves. They are being fed out-dated or expired food that has been donated. Yeah that's how bad this is. I personally know at least 8 current Illinois offenders, one of which is my girlfriend.

I'd like to weigh in a bit. My boyfriend is currently a political prisoner (I used the term advisedly) in county jail. The food is beyond awful institutional. My boyfriend says his fellow inmates complain, as he does to me, that their brains just aren't working right in jail. Other health problems are developing. What they eat is nutritionally insufficient. Think junior-high cafeteria food from the 70s, then degrade the quality by 50%... So, you deprive prisoners of wholesome foods, sunshine, and sufficient exercise; you force them to live in overcrowded conditions (we're in California) with mentally ill people (the mental health programs have all had budgets decimated, whereas the county makes money off prisoners because of federal payments per capita, and believe me they don't squander that on the food budget) and violent people (most people in there are not violent but are in for victimless crimes such as growing or selling cannabis); you subject them to unending noise from blaring TVs featuring wrestling, prison reality shows, cop reality shows and the like; you make restful sleep impossible because there is always noise and lights and they are awakened at 4:30 a.m. for breakfast; your prison administration is straight out of Catch-22; folks, this is not a recipe for rehabilitation. They are being punished, all right, if that makes you feel better. (It doesn’t make you safer.) Feeding decent food would not mean being in jail was not punishment. Given that alcohol abuse contributes to so many crimes, and alcohol dependency has roots at least in part in malnutrition, and you begin to grasp the implications of a dehumanizing, brutalizing prison system that malnourishes inmates and rots their brains and bodies. This is not the way to turn offenders into responsible members of society. Treating them decently is not “coddling” them, and brutalizing them will not make a better, safer society. Now don't get me started on soy, which is unfit for animal or human consumption unless soaked and fermented for a long time, and even then, only in small amounts. Soy does not replace animal protein in a healthful diet. Thanks for covering this issue. I’d like to weigh in a bit.
