[B] Got a delicious subject to put on here? Discuss it! [/B]Have fun

Man, I'd kill for some meals that good

I find it interesting how instead of ordering something extravagant or ridiculous for their last meal, they want something simpler and closer to home to give them some familiar comfort during their final hours. :(

Sugar-free. Because clearly, you need to keep those pounds off for the years to come. Oh wait... :v:

I wouldn't even be able to eat anything knowing I'm going to be killed soon.

[QUOTE=:v:;37475451]I wouldn't even be able to eat anything knowing I'm going to be killed soon.[/QUOTE] Indiana serves their last meals three days before execution as a result.

God damn, I'm dying to have a meal as good as those. [QUOTE]- John Albert Taylor, executed in Utah in 1996: Pizzas "with everything."[/QUOTE] I just imagine the conversation going something like: "Hey, so since you're going to die and all, what would you like to eat?" "Pizza." "Okay, what would you like on it?" "Everything." [IMG]http://slice.seriouseats.com/images/asianpizzahead.jpg[/IMG]

I want fiber muffins while my mother gives me a tonic laced with laxatives.

[QUOTE=FreeHat;37475687]Wasn't aware you could execute retarded folk.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]Rector was subject to a unique overlap of controversies in 1992 during his execution in Arkansas. An oft-cited example of his mental insufficiency is his decision to save the dessert from his last meal for after his execution.[5] [B]In 2002, the U.S. Supreme Court banned the execution of people with mental retardation in Atkins v. Virginia, ruling that the practice constitutes cruel and unusual punishment.[/B][/QUOTE] He was the last mentally retarded person to be executed.

[quote]- Victor Feguer, executed in Iowa in 1963, requested a single olive with the stone still in it.[/quote] I would not be able to finish that meal myself. I'd want a nice onion blossom with dip, among other things.

It's easy to forget these are criminals who did despicable acts, the meagre food by some of them are really striking :(

[QUOTE=Novangel;37476121]It's easy to forget these are criminals who did despicable acts, the meagre food by some of them are really striking :([/QUOTE] They're humans too :C

Reminds me of that "King of the Hill" episode where the guys decide to fix up a huge meal based off what their own last meals would be like it they were going to die, then they all freak out at the last minute and don't eat any of it.

I remember reading about these last meals on Wikipedia. I know there was this one guy who ate a shit ton of food before he was put to death.

ask for so much you bankrupt the prison and everyone is set free

[QUOTE=lotusking;37477910]ask for so much you bankrupt the prison and everyone is set free[/QUOTE] they are allowed to declined it obviously, and i think last meals arn't even part of law but acutally just a thing prisons do.

I'd love to get something that would kill me. (a bottle of vodka for example)

[QUOTE]- Ronnie Lee Gardner, executed in Utah in 2010: Lobster tail, steak, apple pie, vanilla ice cream, 7-Up, and watching The Lord of the Rings film trilogy.[/QUOTE] I'm surprised more prisoners didn't ask for a movie to watch.

[quote]- Francis Crowley, executed in New York in 1932: Steak and onions, French fries, apple pie, ice cream and melted ice cream.[/quote] "Melted ice cream" Why?

For some reason this makes me incredibly sad If I had the chance for a last meal,I'd get just a bottle of absinthe or something and just kill myself by chugging the whole thing(or just cutting myself with the knife for a normal meal). I think it would be easier to kill myself than to let someone else execute me. I should get out of this thread before I start crying

I should get out of this thread before I start crying[/QUOTE] It makes me feel really sad as well, the fact that we hear what these so called monsters ask for before they die, makes makes them seem so much more human. The way that some of them make requests that we might make ourselves, like that guy who ordered a feast and didn't eat a bite out of spite, or the guy who wanted to watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy, makes it easy for us to see ourselves in their situation. It's hard to read this shit and not imagine what is going through their heads. Personally, if I was dying in a few days and I watched the LOTR trilogy, the bit at the Grey Havens would hit me fucking hard.

I would die not having a last meal, but replaying all the sad video games out there. With my cute looks and the way I cry and all the police would probably let me free.
