Last Meals of Prisoners
« on: February 19, 2014, 05:00:45 pm »
So I saw this interesting thing on Buzzfeed today it showed the twelve pictures of the last meals of death row prisoners . While I myself don't like the death penalty (I think it kills more innocent people than guilty people and it seems to suck balls as a deterrent) it is still to me a weird interest of mine to look at the last meals for people who were executed.

Here is one of the pictures

I would want to eat my executioner.

I would try to persuade the warden that I needed a few weeks to make up my mind.

In Texas, they stop giving last meal special requests because Lawrence Brewer, one of the white supremacists responsible for dragging a blind black man name James Byrd Jr. to death, ordered a huge and extravagant last meal only to refuse it in a last act of being an a**hole.  Now, condemned inmates only get prison food a typical inmate would receive.

One bad apple spoils the bunch. That was a bigger dick move on part of the state of Texas.

Seriously, I think they should just set a budget for a last meal. Maybe $60?

It might have been a gambit since the only people executed in Texas are people he would have liked to die

Some states have budgets like that.  Florida's last meal can't be above $40 in value, and another state, I forgot which one, only allows the last meal to be no more than $10 in value.

I'm also reminded of an old (and good) Jewish joke:

Three men are on death row: a Frenchman, an Italian, and a Jew. Each is offered a last meal.

The Frenchman says "I would like some escargot, some good French bread, and some really good French wine". They provide him the meal, he eats it, thanks them, and goes to be executed.

The Italian says "I want a big plate of pasta and some nice Italian wine." They provide him the meal, he eats it, thanks them, and goes to be executed.

The Jew says "I want some strawberries!"

"Strawberries?" they say. "But strawberries aren't even in season!"

The Jew shrugs. "I can wait!"

I'd probably just tell them to order me a pizza, preferably one of those Chicago Deep Dish ones.  They are terrible for you, but I guess at that point it wouldn't matter.

Eye Fillet, Potatoes Dauhpinois (Cream cheese potatoes), lobster thermidor, truffle pasta and matching wines.

Or in the case of the $10 limit a bucket of hot and spicy KFC.

It really brings home the link between comfort and food. We are going to kill you cracker, but hey you can have whatever you want to eat beforehand.

Come to think of it, I'd want something that could be easily and spectacularly vomited up once I entered the execution chamber.
Poprocks and Frootloops with Gummi Worms?
