Topic Reading-Vol.1355-12/27/2015

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Is it fair to punish prisoners with horrible food? Is it fair to punish prisoners with horrible food?
What do you expect in prison? Unlike old days, most prisons in developed or disciplined countries provide decent living environment to prisoners but privacies. One of the most essential daily routines for inmates is meals. Nowadays, most prisons are operated under the guidelines set by their government bodies. But in some cases, meals are still used as part of punishment for prisoners whose attitude or behaviors need to be corrected, more simply as a disciplinary measure. Though such disciplinary meals contain sufficient nutrition, they don’t taste like normal dish or in some cases, served repeatedly or daily.
Is food punishment more effective than other measures? Is it appropriate to use food for disciplinary measure or reminder to inmates?
Enjoy reading and thinking what could meals mean to inmates.
