The scarcity of lethal injection drugs are responsible for the increased production costs of microwave popcorn. The prisoners are not able to die nor are they able to have a bag of microwave popcorn for their final snack. This seems to me to be cruel and unusual punishment.
There is a long pop corn tradition on death row. Before microwave popcorn, kindly guards would make pop corn on a hot plate and slide it on paper plates into the cells. At times all that could be heard from death row was the sound of chewed popcorn. With the availability of microwave popcorn, the guards could make and deliver popcorn with greater efficiency.
Now guards have gone back to pans and hot plates to keep the popcorn tradition alive.
