The bakery at Rikers Island jail...

...in New York "turns out 11,500 loaves of whole wheat bread a day to feed its 13,000 inmates," according to an article in today's Times.

If my math is correct, that works out to about 88 percent of a loaf per person. That sounds like a lot of bread, doesn't it?
