Text (TR): 1 Word Count: 2347 B.G. Jacobs New York Food For Thought Lying on an uncomfortable, two-inch vinyl mattress, in a stifling prison cell, I was at peace for the first time in a long time. Eyes closed, my mind was centered on one thought: what can I use for an ersatz flour to make dough? (Pastelios were in my immediate future.) I was finally away from the stress and madness of prison and safely locked away in my thoughts of food. Cooking is a way for me to both relieve stress and express myself....

Text (TR_WF): NO TITLE It's what you make of it and reflects your values... I'm thirty-five years old and currently incarcerated. This is my first time being in prison, and frankly I am a little astonished by what I see here. Prison; and those that advocate them, espouse the idea of reforming bad behaviors, fixing addictions, and in working towards preventing recidivism. Yet there are more rules being placed that prevent prisoners from doing those very goals! Higher education was removed years ag...
