My parents have a long time friend who works in a prison kitchen. He's a
chef there. This is a municipal prison where many of the inmates are
there for committing violent crimes. From what I remember, the menu is
well balanced, but not gourmet; basically stuff from Sysco or some other
institutional supplier. If I remember correctly, the prisoners on
special diets such as vegetarians, are accommodated, but the food is far
from gourmet quality.
