Spread (prison food)

(

)

Instant ramen, the base ingredient of a typical "spread"

... that in countries like the United States, prisoners supplement inadequate prison food by combining ingredients like instant ramen (pictured), mayonnaise and Kool-Aid into improvised meals called "spreads"? Source: [1], [2]

Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Army of the Dead
Comment: Sources mention both the unpalatability of prison food and declining quantities of it as explanations for the popularity of "spreads". I figured "inadequate prison food" encompasses both nicely.
