JM: How would you rate the food? Please give details of why.
DC: Disgusting. I usually gave mine away to a roommate in exchange for oranges. Now that I think of it, most inmates in there didn't like oranges or any other type of fruit, so I always ended up with it. That's probably how I lost so much weight in there.
