   OPINION

PER CURIAM.

Latchmie Toolasprashad appeals the District Court’s orders granting appellees’ motion for summary judgment. The procedural history of this case and the details of Toolasprashad’s claims are well-known to the parties, set forth in the District Court’s opinions, and need not be discussed at length. Briefly, Toolasprashad filed a civil rights complaint against several prison officials. By order entered December 23, 2005, the District Court granted appellees’ motion for summary judgment. By order entered August 8, 2006, the District Court granted Toolasprashad’s motion for reconsideration with respect to his argument that he had exhausted his administrative remedies on his retaliation and conspiracy claims. The District Court then addressed the merits of those claims and concluded that appellees were entitled to summary judgment on those claims. Toolasprashad filed a timely notice of appeal, and we have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

We exercise plenary review over the District Court’s order granting appellees’ motion for summary judgment. Gallo v. City of Philadelphia, 161 F.3d 217, 221 (3d Cir.1998). A grant of summary judgment will be affirmed if our review reveals that “there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(c). We review the facts in a light most favorable to the party against whom summary judgment was entered. See Coolspring Stone Supply, Inc. v. American States Life Ins. Co., 10 F.3d 144, 146 (3d Cir.1993).

On appeal, Toolasprashad challenges the District Court decisions with respect to his claims concerning the working conditions in the commissary. We agree with the District Court that the conditions in the commissary, while perhaps uncomfortable, did not rise to the level of an Eighth Amendment violation. Toolasprashad also argues that his transfer from the commissary department was in retaliation for his filing grievances against the officers who supervised the commissary. For a claim of retaliation, a prisoner must show that a prison official took an adverse action against him and that his constitutionally protected conduct was a substantial or motivating factor. Rauser v. Horn, 241 F.3d 330 (3d Cir.2001). However, prison officials may prevail by demonstrating that they would have made the same decision regardless of the protected conduct for reasons related to a legitimate penological interest. Id. at 334. We agree with the District Court that appellees were entitled to summary judgment on Toolasprashad’s claim that he was transferred from his job in retaliation for filing grievances.

For the essentially the reasons set forth by the District Court in its opinions, we will affirm the District Court’s judgment. Appellees’ motion to proceed on the original record is granted.
