Judging by his size, one might think Charles Barkley would eat anything -- and everything -- put in front of him. Not true.
We're told Chuck had a serious problem with the food he was served during his short stint in an Arizona jail. Charles was given sloppy joes, potatoes, pear chunks, zucchini, a bread roll and a slice of margarine.
His reaction: "Man ... this stuff tastes like sh*t."
Chuck's special tent, separate from the other inmates, did not come with access to the vending machines with junk food and candy. So his lawyers were allowed to bring him some junk food and candy from the outside.
You can lock up the man ... but not his sweet tooth.

A less sweaty, Nike track suit wearing Sir Charles Barkley posed for this new mugshot when he entered Tent City Jail in Arizona yesterday.
Barkley -- who will finish his 3-day sentence for DUI tomorrow -- is allowed to rock the track suit because he's in on "work release."

DMX is officially on "lockdown status" in Arizona's Tent City Jail for one of the dumbest moves an inmate can make -- dude threatened to fight the guards.
After X failed to report for his medication, officials say the former platinum rapper began cussing at officers and threatened to "assault somebody to get some respect."
DMX was immediately thrown into lockdown and punished with a "special diet that is a form of bread and water."
It all started when he refused to report for work, telling officers, "I already have a job and don't need this (expletive)."
Sounds like he's finally reforming...
