CLEVELAND (WJW) — The spotlight is being shone on food at the Cuyahoga County jail by both county council and one Cleveland-area entrepreneur who wants to see an overhaul of the jail’s nutrition program.
The quality of prison food may be controversial to some, but these interested parties believe this could be a step forward, leading to better care for inmates and their rehabilitation, potentially turning it into a national example.

“I see this as the biggest opportunity our county has among any other thing that they could do, and it’s history and it’s legacy,” EDWINS founder, President and CEO Brandon Chrostowski said.
Chrostowski is fed up with what he’s hearing about the quality of nutrition inside the jail.
“You can have inmates tell you through the thousands of complaints that they’ve filed and have said,” he said. “I think that would speak for itself. What I saw in the one day that they walked me through was [things] looked good. Right? I mean, but I later found out that it was all just a show.”
