“Commissary Kitchen: My Infamous Prison Cookbook” arrives October 11th.
“Prodigy decided to write ‘Commissary Kitchen’ upon his return from jail,” the book’s press release reads. “During the term, he lived in first person the many challenges that inmates have to face in an attempt to conduct a healthy lifestyle in prison, especially when living with a chronic and deadly disease like sickle cell. He realized what an enormous role food plays in his life.”
The book, which features a foreward by Eddie Huang, features a collection of recipes created by inmates using the meager ingredients available to them at the jail commissary. Prodigy shares anecdotes from prison, takes readers on a tour of his prison facility, and describes some of the characters who populate it.
