Ever on the lookout for odd science/craft experiments, I was pleased to find instructions on how to make soap out of bacon, and poking around we see that this is part of a much larger list of idiotic things that you can do. I find the most tantalizing to be instructions on how to make Pruno, or prison wine made from fruit, sugar and ketchup. The author presents the resulting summary:

The only drawback pruno has, aside from its unappealing tannish-orange color, the white flecks of mold floating on the top and the smell you can’t wash off, is its taste. For lack of a better metaphor, pruno tastes like a bile flavored wine cooler. It tastes so bad, in fact, that it could very well be poisonous or psychedelic, which might explain the violence it induces in prisoners.
