Reply to comment by Prometheus357 in TIL that there is a brand of potato chips developed for prison commissaries that was so popular on the inside that it became available to the mass market. by a_side_of_toast

a 'soup' is currency in jail. aka a packet of ramen. nissin chili ramen saved my life, because it's vegetarian and was one of the only things i could eat while in jail. it's hard to find on the outside, but i buy it when it see it.

Really? At least here in the UK it's available in most supermarkets and corner shops now. Top tier noodles though.
