"Menus are rotated every four weeks, with prisoners given a standard breakfast of cereal and a morning roll with jam.
One typical lunch menu at Barlinnie consists of an orange- juice ice lolly and a choice of either macaroni and chips, chicken curry with rice or two lorne sausage rolls.
Dinner the same day offers a choice of smoked sausage and chips with brown sauce, pasta flutes with bolognaise sauce or a tuna mayo baguette with fruit and crisps. The dessert is mixed fruit jelly and ice cream."
Neither healthy nor edifying, but what can you expect on a budget of £1.57 per prisoner per day? I accept that prisoners go to prison partly in order to be punished, but does that preclude decent food?
