What Would Be Your Last Meal?

If the last thought I had was “Oh boy! Baked ziti!” then zip…

I’d be ok with that. :man_shrugging:t2:. You can’t take it with you. (Unless we get all ancient egyptian, but that would be quite a swerve of the thread.)

If I didn’t know it was coming - Brunch with good spiced coffee, tropical fruity mocktails, scallops and grits, duck egg fritatta, huevos rancheros, ribeye and chimichurri, and nutella hazelnut crossants.

If I knew it was coming and was at peace with it - A charcuterie board with grilled bread, salt and butter, jamon serrano, castleventrano olives, ski queen cheese, champaign grapes, some kussi oysters, and a glass of wine from Heidrun meadery. Almost like a final hedonistic communion.

If I knew it was coming and was pissed about it - Two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers… and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.

If it’s the law and I know they’re coming - Waffle house. I will die like I lived.

Thats what I meant to say.

Why eating? Go to the Gym an train, it wil be the last time !!

I just assumed that’s how he ended up on death row in the first place, he just hadn’t finished his first offending meal.

Worst answer ever.

I legitimately couldn’t decide on a meal, and I live in the UK so no death penalty, is there a limit on what you can have for your final meal? (I.e. how many different dishes).

I’m leaning towards a roast dinner (cooked by myself), if I’m not limited I’d also add a chicken dhansak with rice and chips and side of yak rolls and stifado (from some Greek island). I’m genuinely now struggling to limit it, really got into the headspace of never going to eat it again and there are so many meals I eat regularly that I just absolutely love.

Dessert - lemon meringue pie (made by my mum), brownies and ice-cream, chocolate orange cheesecake (made by me again), spiced apple cake (made by mum again), apple crumble with clotted cream, Appelgebak (Dutch).

Alright that’ll do for one meal.

I’d have an enormous amount of beans, veggies and a dustbin lid full of Indian curry…my farts would be so brutally pungent by the time they came to execute me…everyone around me would pass out and then I’d escape!

Ohhh, I forgot about these. They deserve consideration, definitely. But instead of the clam chowder? They certainly don’t go with.

Also under consideration are Thai basil fried rice, prime rib w/ mashed potatoes and green beans, and really good chicken noodle soup for its comfort element.

But then what about good pizza? How do I never eat that again?

@alex_uk There’s no limit on what can be REQUESTED for a last meal, but certainly limits on what can be delivered. But check out some of these more wild (fulfilled) examples to help guide you

And really, the list goes on. All from a wikipedia article listing it.

Which, in turn, @EmilyQ No need to choose! Haha.

Now I’ve thought about Korean short ribs and bulgogi, and I’m torn. I get bbq a lot more often than I do really good bulgogi.

If it’s the last meal, might as well make it count and try to eat yourself to death-

Buffet of fried foods like oysters, chicken tenders, crab cheese wontons mountains of sauce and French fries, wings and drink the sauce.

Add to it isometric lifts against the cell bars until the heart fails!

Can’t think of a better way to go…….

I’m going to have to add a bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese.

Although it’s awfully filling. How will I manage the steak and potatoes if I have bagel w/ lox and enchiladas?

I don’t want to die feeling bloated and miserable.

Im picturing a scene from a movie O saw as a kid:

One guy is in jail and his friends bring him a foot long hotdog with a file (smothered in ketchup and mustatd) tucked into the bun. Maybe there is also a cake with a hack saw?

Exactly, a rarity when it comes to dining out vs. fried or smoked, but absolutely the best experience IMO.
