Yeetle Box - Unsavory Types

Michael Nance, Devalius McDonald and Deandre Clemons, three Kane County, Illinois inmates have filed a $2 million lawsuit, claiming the jailhouse food is "distasteful and disgusting."

Not only do the three inmates claim the food is often cold and the baked goods "soggy," their suit also contends the calories and nutritional value are "not up to par."

"And the baked Alaska is just sub par," said Nance, who is serving a two-year sentence for federal fraud.

The suit, filed against Sheriff Pat Perez, says the meals are provided by Aramark Food Service. The civil suit was filed in Kane County Court. A spokesman for Aramark Food Service issued the following statement:

"We serve the finest foods with the finest ingredients to meet all of your nutritional needs."

A sheriff's department official said officers eat the same food and not one of them has complained.

"Our guys eat this slop. Those guys can eat this slop. Period. We ain't runnin' a cafeteria here! Hell, we can't even serve a cajun chicken breast," said Lt. Pat Gengler. "Our officers eat the same food as the inmates, and I have yet to hear an officer complain about soggy cookies or bland food."

Said McDonald, "Yea, well, the guards are barbaric in their eating habits."

Clemons burped.
