-- Finally, a nationally prominent judge has taken on prison "nutriloaf" as a constitutional issue. In March, U.S. Appeals Court Judge Richard Posner reinstated a dismissed lawsuit by a Milwaukee County Jail inmate who claimed that the mystery meat gave him an "anal fissure." Posner wrote that the lower courts needed to rule on whether the food of indeterminate content is "cruel and unusual punishment," since (citing a Wikipedia entry) an anal fissure seems "no fun at all."
