It is awsome to see what you put into making meals. Trempeleau would have good meals but sometimes you wouldn't get fed. I tried to speak out durring a visit. I was taken off camera and threatened by Officer Joe Clark Trempeleau county sheriff's office. He stated if I ever told someone I would be thrown in a hole and never heard from again. I just wanted to say thanks for the effort you put forth in your jobs. It really does help to keep the jail safer. I have not been in any trouble in years.

They thinking about saving money not feeding them food

I just did 6 days in Vista detention center near San Diego. Breakfast at 4am, lunch at 10am, dinner at 4pm. The only drink served out of the three meals was with breakfast. One little carton of milk. Sometimes they would give you a flavored powder packet to mix with water at lunch or dinner but nothing to mix the powder with. So we saved and rinsed out milk carton from breakfast to fill with water from sink in cell. Problem was, our sink in our cell didn't work. It would literally take 20-30 minutes to fill the little milk carton with water from sink. I understand jail isn't supposed to be the Hilton and I understand it's a punishment but damn, what is this? Bagdad Iraq or something? Luckily I had a cool cell mate who had just received his commissary order when I went it and he shared with me. He was waiting to go to prison. When I got out, first thing I did was put some money on his books. Going to jail during coronavirus sucks ass btw. Only let out of your cell every 48-56 hours for 30 minutes to shower or make a phone call. They preach pandemic safety but not once did we get hand sanitizer or anything. Plus our sink didn't work to even wash our hands. Sergeant said that everyone entering jail is on 14 day quarantine unless you bail out or case dismissed. Luckily my shit was dropped. Merry Christmas everyone

If our entire jail and prison system would implement a FOOD REFORM program and upgrade the quality of food for the detainees and prisoners, there would be far less violence and health issues for them. Bravo to this Sheriff for the job he is doing.

I did 90 days in Duval County jail back in the early 1990s. I got on the kitchen crew almost from day 1.(I was a line cook at a popular steak house). I used to load up the trays as much as I could get away with, cause I remember getting the trays that couldn't fill the stomach of a field mouse.

I’m sorry I just don’t believe that you actually gave them 2 sandwiches most jails get 1 like when they make actual meat like fish they get 1 small piece each…like 🧍🏼‍♀️

salad pbj sandwich n turkey sandwich where’s this jailhouse at? beverly hills?

props goes to that lady putting the effort into making those meals look good

This must be the jail where the rich and famous people go. Ain't no jail or prison serving this kind of food to regular inmates. This is just a front, because the camera crew is there.

Any middle class or working class citizien would KILL for a healthy, filling 3 day meal that only totals $1.80 a day.

So how come they can't have that for poor kids in school ?

@HCSO I could be mistaken but is that the Plastocon Classic, BMC-13? Solidly designed tray. I like the design and heft of the Supermax, DHT-6, as well.

I heard when some inmates from Highlands County got transferred to Polk County Sheriffs Office Jail due to renovations at Highlands jail they were not happy with the food at all in Polk County lol

I can tell you know this is a dog and pony show for the cameras because I've worked in places like this even when the health department comes to inspect they make it look like that's how it is everyday. And it's not the bosses put on a good show, and after they leave, it goes to being half assed. I worked a year as a Food Service Supervisor for Trinity Services Group. These are some of the most hostile work environments. You're sometimes better off having the job of a correction officer. Sometimes, you're understaffed or don't have enough inmates to get the job done. And the inmates like to steal anything they can get.

She sounds like a very good executive chef 💯

Humans need food, air, water, clean places, love, and medical care alongside education and training. We need stimulation to grow and rules with understanding. If you take this away from an inmate, you will have issues inside and out. We send them there to be reformed and not tortured, regardless of their crimes. In case you think I am too pro-inmate, a person touched my 8-year-old daughter, and I don't wish him a tortured life. He needs to be reformed to make him understand the rules apply to everyone. My daughter is in therapy and with my help, I don't classify her as a victim of S.A., but a survivor of an act not appropriate for her age. He is still a human being and mistakes are made. If a woman would help him out, he would not be so prone to do these sorts of things. We need understanding and not hate or hurt. Thank you all and love and respect each other, any other way is not worth it.

Normally I'd laugh, however, anytime the media shows, you're going to see a nice trey of quality food and the quantity will be more than sufficient. I'd also add this prison is lucky to have Miss Thomas as the head of the kitchen. I'm sure she orders the best you can get with such a miniscule budget. Jail food is ten times worse than prison food, however, a lot depends on who's running the kitchen. This place lucked out but hopefully she's not in prison too long. She should open her own little food truck when and if she's ever released. The county wouldn't turn a permit application down from her. I think if anything, they'd encourage it. She could even park it out front of the courthouse lol. The food trucks outside those places make bank.

Guess they've NEVER see those boxes marked " not for human consumption"

I'm so happy not to be eating that stuff no more I don't know how people eat swole in the streets I can't do it

That guard said it right. You feed them enough and make it at least acceptable or you have riot's. The hardest prison in the USA ADX in Florence is supposed to have some of the better food in quantity and quality in the federal system even though all feds follow the same menu's. They don't want food riot's

You mean if you treat people with respect, you get it back? Unbelievable

Beans & Rice would be better than a constant stream of sodium laden cold cuts. 😮...and $1.00 a day to boot.

I was in county for about 2 weeks once and not once was I like worried about the food. There was that one guy though that used a book to heat his lunchmeat. I mean he tore the bookup but putting balogna on ink isn't healthy especially if you put it in the microwave.

That is a funaminal straight for as the police officer said good food and a healthy portion avoids fights protests, and potential harm to county jail inmates and even correctional officers is a wonderful reality and overall responsible way of enacting a form of violence prevention the said thing is that the majority of all other county jails actually have incompetent nutritionist who are actually more interested in conspiring with jail and medical staff to cause their jail inmate population to remain hungry with for the most part terrible looking and tasting food, whereon said officials objective is to make their jail populations suffer from constant hunger with food with little to no nutritional value, that with a cost of about 10 to 30 dollars to feed each county jail inmate, verses the 180 in the above video for what appears to be 9utstandinf food.
