You are on death row - What would you eat?
Discussion
Its a common myth that your last meal can be whatever you want. The truth is it's a restricted selection based on what the kitchen has available, what the cook can do, so on and so forth. Some places have a budget and a choice on what is available locally.
But a normally they don't even get a choice in what they are fed, not even given a buffet/canteen style choice like the general population, they get a plate taken to their cell (if you're on Death Row in the US, you are there because your dangerous).
Also, the last meal is usually given several days before execution.

Honestly, I wouldn't want to die stuffed to the gunnels feeling like I've got 10oz of st trying to solidify inside of me.
I'd request the finest platter of sashimi and nigiri known to man, with an ice cold Hofbräu, followed by some sickening piece of chocolate cake that would make Nigella's nipples hard.

I guess that raises an interesting question - if someone was to suffer a severe allergic reaction when eating their last meal, would they go to the trouble of reviving them
I reckon somewhere like Venezuela they'd just save the electric

It was common knowledge they would have the largest sloppiest meals they could manage, litres of ice cream for example, because when the switch was flicked they would banjax their pants therefore making the biggest mess possible......
