Pork Returns To Prison Menu

The ban on pork in federal prisons, reported recently by The Washington Post, has been reversed, at least in part.  After what the Post metaphorically calls a "firestorm", pork roast has been restored to the prison menu.
After a week of controversy surrounding its abrupt removal of pork dishes from the national menu for federal inmates, the government did an about-face Thursday and put pork roast back on the prison bill of fare.
Fox News also weighs in, starting off with an appropriate expression.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons may have bitten off more than it could chew by banning pork from prison menus earlier this month -- and apparently has reversed course on the decision.
Both articles come via Hot Air.  I don't normally like to pilfer their stuff, but since I had relayed the news about the ban, I felt an obligation to pass on this further development, and had to give them a mention.
