I can't imagine wanting to eat if I was about to die.

Not to mention, they usually bring you a crappy version of what you wanted. Ask for steak and mashed potatoes and you'll get a $2 well-done steak with KFC mashed potatoes.

It's nice to know that it won't have time to digest, and the mortuary tech will be digging it out of you in a couple of hours.

is this an hypothetical "death row" last meal? (which btw, they have abolished after 1 idiot ordered a boatload of food and didnt eat any

Perhaps he was saving it for later? :D

Actually that was Lawrence Brewer, who was executed for a hate crime. He ordered:

- two chicken fried steaks
- triple meat bacon cheeseburger
- a pound of barbecue meat
- a pint of ice cream
- fried okra
- three fajitas
- a meat lover's pizza
- a slab of peanut butter fudge with crushed peanuts

If it was deathrow, I would ask for a big bowl of peanuts and a tall glass of milk, and some cheese. After I'm done I would tell them I'm lactose intolerant and allergic to peanuts.

Knowing how silly the policies around deathrow are, they'd probably still have to rush me to a hospital, and it would buy me a potential opportunity to escape.


LOL :awe:

Don't know if I would eat a last meal, but I figure I'd want to maybe eat something nice before I move on to the next life and leave this fuckheaded rock.

I'd make it a whole day affair of eating.

Lobster
Crab
A gyro
A Philly steak and cheese sandwich
An Italian beef
Fried pickles
and my mom's kraut burgers although I bet the fuck ups in the prison kitchen would have to make them.

God only knows if the guards spit in your food.

I know this song by heart and these would be my last words.

Can you tell I have thought about this before? :awe:

If we are talking death row, I wouldn't eat anything for days. I want to avoid the final indignity of crapping myself after death. I would probably ask for cigarettes...the cool yellow ones in the movie Ronin.

I'm a cigarette smoker and I smoke Camels, but I tried Benson and Hedges and those were pretty good. Maybe I should switch. Time for a smoke right now!
