I watched a documentary on Russian prisons once. A former inmate talked about the food and how he would have suffered from various deficiencies if his family had not sent regular food packets. He described the gruel they were feeding him as a "mystery slop", a delightful (I think so) phrase which has stuck with me since.
This has fuck all to do with anything, but I had to get it out.
Anyway, good to hear you're doing OK.
