Default Death Row Meal

I figured this would be an interesting conversation.

If you were on death row and they came to you and said your going to have your last meal tomorrow night, what do you want, anything you want, what would it be?

Id want a huge peice of meatloaf, my moms potpie and a huge bowl of sheppards pie, nice steak with a huge pile of slightly chunky mashed potatoes for desert a huge peice of peach pie and a peice of apple pie, a peice of angel food cake with tons of fresh summer berries and a berry syrup a HUGE class of coke with fresh lime and tons of ice and to top it off a huge chocolate malt milk shake.

Can I have that all now please?

I heard they have a limit, like $20-25 or something.

Also they probably don't have someone there to prepare all that stuff for you, so it must have to be from a retaurant that will prepare it for take out.

But if there were no limit and they had an executive chef there to cook it, I'd ask for one of those blowfish that you sometimes die after eating them, but are suppose to taste real good. With a couple pounds of white winter truffles on top.

Chips and salsa with guacamole and bean dip, Tacos Al Pastor, and a fried jalapeno. Negro Modelo with salt and lime and Don Julio, room temp, no training wheels.

Also, you'd have to hope you wouldn't be one of those people freed minutes before their execution, lol.

If the prison guards are daft enough to give me a set of sharp knives and a deadly neuro toxin, then I suspect I could engineer my own last minute release plan reasonably successfully.

If anyone ever has the time to sift through the text, interesting website about actual last meal requests

Dead Man Eating...Last Meals on Death Row

I think I would have Morimoto come in and make me whatever he felt like.

Last Meal: Matchett had a final meal request of four olives and a bottle of wild-berry flavored water.

Most of them are Texans, I'm ashamed.
Did you notice all of those from Texas had mostly Tex-Mex?
I can't believe how much they can eat...
