While it sounds silly, COs accepting payment for doing favors for an inmate is not a good thing. That’s the kind of thing that sorta needs to be a zero tolerance policy.
It probably has to do with the inability/expense of the facility to be able to properly secure outside food against other more serious kinds of contraband.

True, but why are we making food contraband in the first place? That seems incredibly unnecessary
Because inmates get super creative with smuggling in drugs and weapons.
A hyperbolic example is the king of the hill episode where Peggy gets conned into smuggling cocaine into prison.
