Is it like the food they serve at your schools cafeteria like sloppy joe? Or is it like cereal and milk and white bread.

Better food than a great number of impoverished children in our Country get to eat.
I am ashamed...

The food they serve in prison is of higher quality then you might think. Breakfasts include. Hard boiled eggs, oatmeal, OJ, biscuits and gravy, dry cereal. Lunch mostly, bologna sandwiches, micro wave burritos, pizza. milk. some sort of fruit is served with every meal. Dinner, Tortillas and rice, hot dogs and beans, chicken patty and veggies.
Inmates are also allowed to order "commissary." This is mostly stuff that you can buy at a 7-11. Chips,Jerky,nacho cheese, top raman is big. Most of an inmates diet comes from their commissary. By choice mind you. These guys can make amazing things from ordinary stuff. EX.A bag of pork rinds, koolaid, catchup, mustard,and a raman noodles will make and surprisingly authentic sweet and sour pork.

According to state regulations all prison meals must be nourishing and appealing to the eye. Most menus are based on a 2200 calorie meal pattern. Some prisons cater to religious, health, and vegetarian preferences. A typical Menu is as follows:
Breakfast - cold cereal, hard boiled eggs and beverage.
Lunch - Sandwich, fruit, gelatin, cookies and beverage.
Dinner - hot entree, vegetables, dessert and beverage.
Inmates must be allowed at least 15 minutes to eat and may trade their entree for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Inmates are often free to purchase snacks from the commissary using money given to them by family and friends.

Well my school serves really good food in the cafeteria... lol
In Canada, the prisons serve the same food as detox centres... But unlike in detox, you get carbs in jail... From what I've been told, the food is pretty decent.

Maybe we should ask Paris! LoL
I think they give them bologna sandwiches for lunch. Other than that...I have no idea what they get.
I would say that is varies by prison/jail.
My one friend's dad was a prison cook, and he always made good meals when I was at her house...so I would assume that the inmates where he worked ate well.

It's not that bad.....In jail they get two hots and a cold. Inmates are also allowed to buy personal food such as candy and soups

It varies from prison to prison. But it's always bad.

The meals are very much like your school cafeteria.
They are not fancy, but they are nutritious.
