Welcome to Food Crimes! This community is here to collect all and any post about cursed food and generally unusual consumables.
Right now, here’s the rules:
- Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
- It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
- No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.
How to tag:
To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz
Here are the current tags:
- Edited - The image was manipulated with editing software.
- OC - You made this cursed food yourself!
- Meta - Relating to the community itself.
Finished checking out all the posts here? Also checkout !shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca!
(BTW, I’m looking for someone to help mod here! I myself would not be enough if this community goes beyond a few posts a day.)

I don't think it's free... A lot of states apparently charge a per-day fee that you've gotta repay on release.
E: this is (of course) in the US
40 states currently have 'pay to stay' programs, but, my understanding is that they're the minority of prisons even in those states, and generally the ones on the softer side of the spectrum. still very fucked up.

Stated another way, jail subscription.
in some states (ca is referenced in the link) they can pay more to have softer conditions and even furloughs.
I need to detach from this convo as I'm getting kind of infuriated without being able to do much about it. I live up in Washington state now, but used to be a Cali boy and shit like this gives you such whiplash if you believe the news about how blue California is. 😂
good luck man. And same! Used to live in Folsom. Now I live in Seattle. Not that rancho cordova didn't have it's charms, eh.... but I'm a happier person here.
Costa Mesa up to Seattle myself, love how green it is. But noticing how much Spokane vs Seattle politics is at play as I get used to this plane I just moved to.. same shit, different place haha
No idea. Never been, and not planning on it either, but I guess nobody really does.
They make sure to saddle those pesky prisoners with a healthy amount of debt to make sure they come back soon.
This is by no means a universal or even common thing
