Instant ramen noodles have become like cash among inmates in the US.

Cash is illegal in prisons. And that means everything from tuna to stamps to cigarettes have their own unique value in a trade and barter market.
But ramen has quickly taken over as the most in demand products the prison system offers.
Watch this video to see how ramen took over prison economies and why it’s the default item for trade among inmates.
The Goods by Vox explains what we buy, why we buy it, and why it matters.

College kids and prisoners are very similar. Both are held in a system in which they have to try their best to be the top. The system they are held in is a business meant to make money. They are in debt or have little to no money when they get out of their system. And most importantly They eat a lot of ramen.

When my dad was writing to me from prison all of his letters were talking about his food cravings. Specifically onion rings. When he finally got out I met him at a park and he just started eating ramen straight out of the packet. Watching this video made me think about what he was doing when he was locked up. Occasionally he sent me letters with cool artwork of my name saying his “friend” drew it for me. I’m wondering if his “friend” did it out of the kindness of his heart, or for some ramen. 🤔

I've been out of prison for many years and still suffer from awful food anxiety. Spending every day feeling like I was starving was beyond anything I can describe.

@bohanxu6125 3 года назад

how do you buy food in prison? do you use the money that you earned during prison labor? if that's the case, the prison is kinda training people to earn their own money and buy food with it. If so, it seems like a good idea to me.

Yup. I spent 10 months behind bars a long time ago. Ramen packets were $.99 each, and you could only buy a max of 10 at a time, and keep up to 15 in your property. It truly was the currency of everything. I had a cellmate who constantly played poker, and they would use soups and shots of coffee as betting chips. When I got moved to ultra minimum security (which has cells with up to 8 inmates at a time), we would make one huge spread consisting primarily of: Soups, bags of chips, refried beans, squeeze cheese. Then anyone would add what they wanted on theirs. It was a moment of comradeship, when we shared, ate, joked, and laughed.

One major thing this video misses is the amount of protein in ramen. Without protein, inmates can't build muscle, which is a pretty important sign of status and ability to defend oneself in prison. A pack of ramen contains about 10 grams of protein, which is a huge amount compared to what inmates usually get.

@X_A_ic 5 лет назад

They also left out the fact that it tastes good so I think everyone want it?

@bigge1002 5 лет назад

I've not seen a single pack of ramen that contains more than 5g of protein, so I think that's more of a myth. I think the main reason is because ramen fills you up very well compared to other foods, I can eat two packs and feel very full for a long time, ramen just has that effect because of the high fat and starches.

A prison in my state had to put in rules on how many items you can buy at one time and you may only have say 5 packs of ramen in your cell. If more than five are found the guards will take all of them. My little brother spent some time in there for DUI that caused damage. He was shocked at what people would do for ramen when they didn't have cash in their accounts. They also hand candy, crackers, and jerky. He was told that all prisons have different items in their jail stores. Also, the Ramon there cost like 1.50 and most thing cost more because it was a Prison for profit

At your local market the lower grade ramen sells for 10 per $1.00 often. Prisons by in far greater bulk than grocery stores. So the profit margins for ramen sales at the State prisons is huge. The California food budget per inmate per day is $.90. This is why prisoners must have a staple to fall back on when the daily menu is inedible (which is often).
