Reply to comment by ilikewc3 in TIL that incarcerated prisoners make a contraband drink in prison called "pruno" which entails fermenting fruit, sugar cubes, bread, and water in a ziplock bag a several days. by FlashyBehind

lol, just because it's a silly urban myth doesn't mean there aren't people stupid enough to believe it and give it a try. hell, i fell for the one about smoking banana peels when i was a kid. but i also spent 4 years in prison and never ran into or heard about anyone dumb enough to actually try the jenkem one.

It actually works and is a real thing is why it's not an urban myth. It has a Wikipedia page.

i hate to be the one to break this to you, but having a wikipedia page doesn't mean that something is true.

Yeah further investigation has lead me to conclude that this is, in fact, a myth. Thanks for the correction.
