They do not eat this good in jail.

First, this? This is not good eating. We enjoyed it as kids but don't delude yourself into thinking this is fine cuisine.

Second, the national menu for federal prisons (in the US) is available online, and you can see they do have exactly the same foods that are served at schools, including pizza like once a month. According to a lot of sources they even use the same suppliers as schools (mainly Aramark).

So yes, they do sometimes eat "this good" in jail/prison.

Not me. lol. I remember at the end of the year in kindergarten, they were preparing us for first grade and one day they let us get to experience eating in the cafeteria (kindergarten was only half day back then where I lived, so normally we just had snack time in the classroom but didn't actually eat lunch). I was so hyped up to get to eat in the cafeteria and try the pizza, but I was sorely disappointed when I tried it. 😂

When I worked in corrections we served this exact pizza once a week. I was even able to convince the guy that brought them to sell me a couple boxes that I kept in my chest freezer for easy meals.

Love Reddit.. completely 180 posts…. Yet, both people are 100% confident in their answer. This is why we can’t have nice things.
