Incarceration Creations: Recipes from the Big House

Have you ever given any thought as to the type of food prisoners eat? Is there a chance that you or someone you know might become a resident of the U.S. prison system? We never dreamed it would happen to us. However, in the midst of life, we found ourselves with loved ones who became incarcerated. This publication is a light-hearted look at the creative culinary skills and ingenuity of prison inmates. It is a collection of various anonymous prisoner created recipes made without access to culinary supplies or a traditional kitchen. The ingredients are from prepackaged convenience foods and do not involve traditional cooking methods. It is in essence, a guide to recipes made from junk food. Use this book to learn how to create tasty treats, midnight snacks or a meal using ingredients commonly found in minute markets, vending machines or the workplace food stash.
