Federal Government Eliminates Pork from Federal Prison Menus

[InTheLight]

The nation’s pork producers are in an uproar after the federal government abruptly removed bacon, pork chops, pork links, ham and all other pig products from the national menu for 206,000 federal inmates.

The ban started with the new fiscal year last week.

I'm on board with this from an expense perspective. Feed the inmates as cheaply as possible.

But taking into consideration what the inmates rate as tasty? Give me a break. First of all, pork is awesome. Second, your a convicted criminal. You lost your food choices when you were convicted.

Feed them rice, beans, and bread every day and every meal.

Are we waiting for a response like: "Muslims are taking over! This is insane! OBAMA HAS DONE IT AGAIN!"

Is that what we are waiting for?

It's an over the top stupid move. Texas raises it's own pigs and feeds it's inmates pork several times a week. Pork free meals are available to muslims at every meal.

I smell Kosher food industry influence.

Anyone that has to eat food from the same old cafeteria for long will want MORE variety, not less. And pork is substantially cheaper than beef. There's more to this than is being told and you can bet the bean counters in D.C. will feel the pressure and be on this..... unless they're all Jews, of course.

wait for it........

Well, you know, when you post specifically looking for a certain reaction, then don't be surprised when you get it.

Surest way to start a riot is to ban bacon...

A crowded cell full of people on a bean diet...

My panties aren't in a twist, so don't worry about that. Make sure your hairband isn't on too tight!

You know I might change my mind and be in favor of that kind of jail house diet if Bill and or Hillary Clinton were incarcerated in one of those cells.
