Former prison inmates who were forced onto a disciplinary diet of Nutra-Loaf unanimously described it as one of the most painful aspects of their punishment. It is meant to have no taste at all, while being as unappetizing to the eye as it is hard on the stomach. It's not even served on a plate, but rather on a sheet of paper, and you eat this disgusting glop with your hands.People who say our prisoners are being "coddled", have never spent any time "on the inside", discovering the nearly infinite ways prisons can punish people. Food is just one of the many tools available to prison administrators to make the conditions of incarceration as painful as possible, which is exactly what jail time is supposed to be. When I transported inmates from Rikers Island to Elmhurst Hospital, I saw first-hand how severe prison really is. I know that I, personally, wouldn't be able to handle an hour let alone years in a prison ennvironment. I wish the "lock 'em up and throw away the key" crowd, that always screams for harsher treatment for prisoners, could see how bad it is already. Our convicts get punished truly and well, believe that. |
