> I know plenty of vegans that, if presented with a situation where it was only PB and bread or other options, they would just say "Eh, well... I can just eat the other stuff for now because this is what there is..."

This makes sense. There is a logical reason to deny vegans food that fits their diet, and if you think about it getting arrested while being a vegan is basically two crimes. Any vegan accused of any crime should be forced to eat meat as a punitive default. The reasoning for this is obvious, for example



There actually is a logical reason and that reason is they can only produce and provide so much in a day in a prison. They can't make all these custom meals. That's now how the kitchen works in a prison.


I like the idea that “giving people vegetables” puts undue stress on the state of California.

Can you elaborate on how kitchens work in prison and jails?


I don't believe that giving people vegetables puts undue stress. I don't believe that SBF hasn't been presented with vegetables or fruit either. I imagine they are canned and not fresh and beautiful, as he's come to expect. I think he's being a little brat.

I just meant that they have limited ingredients and set meals planned for each day. It isn't a restaurant where you have a menu to pick from.
