So I did a search for both "last meal" and "death row" but nothing of the topic was found.
In the United States and elsewhere, it is customary for inmates on death row to have a last meal request before they are executed. There have been many last meals of famous convicts to even have a book about them.
Last Suppers: Famous Final Meals from Death Row by Ty Treadwell and Michelle Vernon
“Timothy McVeigh was responsible for the Oklahoma City Bombing in 1996 that killed 168 people and injured hundreds more. McVeigh was executed via lethal injection in Indiana on June 11, 2001 and had another unusual request: two pints of mint chocolate chip ice cream.”
“Ted Bundy, famous serial killer; declined a special meal, so he was given the traditional steak (medium-rare), eggs (over-easy), hash browns, toast, milk, coffee, juice, butter, and jelly”
This leads to the question, if you had a last meal request what would you order? Some rules that usually apply are the ingredients must be purchased locally and cost less than $40. Alcohol and Tobacco are usually denied as well. It doesn't necessarily have to be the tastiest or most expensive as some have ordered KFC.
Must be purchased locally and cost less than $40? Aww, I would have requested something that would cost a shitload and be so far away and rare that it might take months to find, not sure what that would be exactly though...
I really don't know what I would actually go for, too many things to choose from =/
The prisoners may ask what they fancy for their last meal, provided they ask for sausages. Otherwise they tend to get a tiny bit disappointed... sausage is all the cook's got.
I'd probably have a good jacket potato (=baked potato if you don't use the term jacket potato) with huge amounts of butter and and grated cheese on top and a fucking huge steak, cooked medium rare.
Om nom nom.

That's pretty clever
I would get grilled trout with some salt, cumin and thyme with baked potatoes with bacon and onion...yum
Hmmmm, I should've known not to read this thread when I'm hungry
The default meal sounds good, as does the OP's choice.
Lately I've been really enjoying Greek food though. As long as you don't have to breathe on anyone after (and you won't) then that's the choice for me.

Haha, "we can't execute him today, he's ill, see if he's feeling up to it tomorrow"
A gigantic shrimp cocktail with cherry tomatoes and assorted yammy breads on the side. I'd finish it off with a real cheeseburger that sends me off to space with the mouth watering sensation of prime beef on my buds.
Difficult question, don't know what I'd ask for really. Couldn't say which my favorite food is anymore... Maybe some sort of prosciutto which needs to dry for 2 years?
$40? I think that's something like £25, so for me, large texas BBQ dominoes pizza, bottle of coke, garlic bread, extra BBQ sauce, cookie dough ice cream.
My childhood fantasy meal whenever my parents were out (portions increased..... a little bit though) ^_^
Appetiser I'd want some of that bread they make at Texas Roadhouse, with the cinnamon/honey butter.
80/20 hamburger meat, 1/2 pound. When flipped to grill the other half, apply some raspberry chipotle sause as well as 2 slices of swiss cheese, cover with pan, and let that stuff cook into the meat. Toast some sourdough buns, put some lettuice on it, and thats the main course.
Desert is some red velvet cheesecake with all the whippedcream possible with leftover money.
If this is true, why the hell are people on death row aloud such a privilege? They shouldn't have any last requests even if it is something small as a meal, they should go into the death chamber without the feeling of having one last good meal. The only reason I can see that they do this, is to torture them with the fact of they will never have something they want again, rather than giving them shit and thinking that at least they don't have to eat shit anymore when they're dead.
For me If I could pick a last meal before i die, it would be a Rack of Lamb with a Greek Salad.
Hrmm Dates wrapped in bacon, A bowl of rice with pork, eggs, and tofu on it. Oh right, spinach as well. A glass of milk or orange juice. Then some French vanilla Ice cream for dessert.
Lots and lots of beans so you can gas the executioner
Seriously though: Potato wedges pan roasted with a little oil, rosemary, thyme and some sea salt Sausage (preferably long and thin) roasted with oil in a pan with tomato wedges (nice firm tomato diced in 4 parts, so that after roasting the skin starts to come loose and the juice will run over your chin while biting them without them being all mushy), basil and cilantro.
Preferably with some nice cold beers. Some plain water otherwise. I could die happy after that meal.

Haha, I was going to say whatever makes a nice mess in my diaper for the guards to clean up but this guy nailed it pretty well! But in all seriousness, this is a pretty morbid subject...
As much pizza as I can get. I have visited some of the better restaurants in the cities several times (you know, suit,different wine for every dish etc.) and I never really liked the foods very much.
^I doubt you could buy much of anything from Gordon Ramsay for 40 bucks. You'd die starving !
400mg steak (bloody) with green pepper sauce, fries with mayonnaise and cesar salad. and i'd ask for a glass of red wine with that even if it probably wouldn't be allowed.
Didn't they change this after people requested ridiculous things but didn't eat it? Another was someone ordering buckets of jolly ranchers for poor people on the streets.
I would probably want some crispy bacon. I don't know what else I would want to eat if I'm about to die. Another interesting thing, they spend like 30-40 thousand a year on death row prisoners and it takes a while for them to be executed, so being on death row isn't too bad apparently.
Bottomless sloppy joes with a ceasar salad with a big glass of milk. A glass of scotch for desert, if they would let me. Or cheesecake if they dont let me have scotch.
full breakfast couple of cups of coffee followed by 2 large milkshakes and a tub of ice cream, be quite nice to be sick everywhere as they electrocute you lol
A buffalo burger,3 spring rolls with soy juice, maccaroni with parmesan and lots of grated nutmeg followed by an earl grey tea with a bit of lemon and 3 almond cookies.
And im about to rush outside before stores close cause this made me hungry

We're all going to die. That doesn't mean we can't enjoy what time we have left (even if it's only four hours). Why would you not do everything you could in your last hours?
Those of you who are mentioning specific restaurants' food need to look at what actually happens. They make whatever you want, but they make it in the prison. They are not going to bring in a professional chef to make you amazing food and its up to their discretion whether to bring other food in. That being said, I'd definitely go for a very spicy steak and a cold Coke, with mashed potatoes. Hopefully the pain from the spiciness would distract me from what was about to happen :/

Because despite the terrible things someone has done to earn their spot on death row, the guards and executioners still feel guilt and want to give them some final comfort before ending their existence. It's the same reason they don't behead prisoners anymore but instead use painless, lethal injections.

Well, a few hours is a pretty short time. I'm sure you could manage it even if you were a little hungry. There's no reason not to get something, but it's easy to turn it around and say there's no reason to do it either. In any case, I'd probably ask for tuna pasta, but wouldn't be too upset if they didn't give me anything.

dunno if anyone have said this allready, but 40 cans of any liquid will kill you, including water.
Spicy chicken, either from kfc or popeyes, 2 breast, 3 wings Garlic mashed potatoes with brown gravy Buttered corn Diet dew My mom's stew with an italian roll If I cant get that then general tsao chicken.
I don't think i would be able to stomach eating anything, if i was just about to die. I think i would need a lot of time to come to terms with my exection, and still i doubt i would be able to eat anything just a couple hours before, no matter how long i had to come to terms. I'd rather have like a last hours worth of music than a last meal.
In September 2011, the state of Texas abolished all special last meal requests after condemned prisoner Lawrence Russell Brewer requested a huge last meal then did not eat any of it, saying he was not hungry. His last meal request consisted of two chicken-fried steaks with gravy and sliced onions; a triple-patty bacon cheeseburger; a cheese omelet with ground beef, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers and jalapeños; a bowl of fried okra with ketchup; one pound of barbecued meat with half a loaf of white bread; three fajitas; a meat-lover’s pizza (topped with pepperoni, ham, beef, bacon and sausage); one pint of Blue Bell Ice Cream; a slab of peanut-butter fudge with crushed peanuts; and three root beers (normally non-alcoholic). The abolition followed a complaint by a Texas Senator, John Whitmire, who called the meal "inappropriate".The tradition of customized last meals is thought to date back at least 87 years in Texas.
Am I the only one that finds it really disturbing that the "last meal" idea even exists?
I mean, we're about to kill somebody off, but then we show some humanity by asking them what they'd like to eat? That makes it weird as hell... It's easier to think of them as an animal than to think about killing somebody off, and I'm a vengeful person.
That being said.. the most unhealthy thing I could think of at the moment. A lot of it.
something that i'm alergic to troll them and make them reschedule the lethal injection as they would be obligated to give me medical attention. then say they tried to poison me.

But if I was a vegertarian and I had a last meal, I'd be like fuck it - give me a that thing at KFC with the deepfried chicken as bread.
This always made me wonder what would happen if a cannibalistic killer asked for human?
In any case, I'd ask for a Gordon Ramsey prepared meal, so I could tell him his food was shit. Ironic, since I'd present it to my executioners as such there after.
Also, this thread made me want to bring up that Texas is no longer offering last meals to their inmates. link

Everything you'll ever need to know about last meals... and hopefully more!
Virginia prisons limit offenders to items contained on the prison system’s 28-day rotating menu. Still, John Allen Muhammad, the "Beltway sniper," requested that authorities not disclose his last meal when he was executed in 2009. They complie
2x1, chop both grilled and raw onions, mustard-fried patty, extra toast for the bun, with a side of chopped chilis and an animal-style fries. For a drink, make that a Dr Pepper with no ice.
One large starbucks iced vanilla latte One roll of spicy tuna sushi One burger from The White Spot One plate of cheese tortellini in a rose sauce Spicy chicken chow mein + pork dumplings
Wow, the cereal I'm eating seems so inadequate right now. Brb, finding someone to murder.

A nice well done tri-tip steak, some seasoned roast potatoes, a carrot with ranch dressing, a few pieces of sushi with soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger. To drink, if I can't get my hands on some honey whiskey, then a nice glass of lemonade.
Steak Grilled-cheese sandwich A nice IPA Cinnamon rolls Dr. Pepper: Red Fusion (greatest drink of all time) Stew that me old paps makes sometimes Sushi Breakfast Burrito (SD style; none of this crap nor-Cal mexi food, or tex-mex, I'm talking about authentic mexican food here) Tortilla Chips and Guac Carnitas Torta
40 bugs in chocolate all the way. I would eat as much as i could, then would feel so sick that i would be glad that i could die. Also being able to eat as much chocolate as i want without having to watch my weight is as close to freedom as i probably ever get
I really don't know how anyone could be thinking about food when they're on line to be executed. It's like accepting you're gonna die if you make a request.

I think people on death row have been there long enough that they learned to deal with it and accept it. And it's their last chance for a decent meal.

Grilled salmon Rare Sirloin steak Baked potato(With all the topping ofc) and a single pint of LowenBrau (seriously im about to die, not asking for a bottle or enough to get drunk just a nice cold pint to enjoy with my last meal!)
Chocolate milkshake, and strawberry milkshake Lamb, with no sauce or spices (lamb tastes awesome by itself) Mashed potatoes with cheese and garlic pepper and my mothers mac and cheese, with bacon
Everybody in this thread who answered "Dominoes" to the question "what would be your last meal?" deserves to be executed. My answer would be a boatload of grilled river eel with sauce.

$40 worth of taco bell so I can gas the chamber I'm in and when I'm dead hopefully take a few of them with me from pure stench, they better triple me up on pampers as well.
Fried Veal Sandwich covered in good tomato sauce with mozzarella cheese. Side of bruschetta a glass of orange-grapefruit juice. Ammereto cookies for dessert.
-24 oz. serving of Red Beans and Rice, accented with habanero hot sauce (with a side of butcher's fresh garlic pork sausage) -12 oz. of cornmeal-fried shrimp caught in brackish water (they're sweeter-tasting this way, less briny or iodine in their body) -12 oz. of italian bread-crumb stuffed crabs (aka crab cakes) A gallon of Nestea.
They may want to eat my stomach out after they fry me on the chair.

lol not one prisoner had a meal i'd call very good. Seems like all they know is steak, chicken and pizza. If you have so much time to overthink what you'll order you can surely do better then that..
I don't know if I'd be able to eat, but if I were, I'd want the paprika schnitzel from a restaurant in my city. It's delicious, and I'd want with the rice and mixed vegetables as per usual. It's my favourite restaurant and it's delicious.
I think in some places (Texas I think is a state that now does this) they have actually changed it to where the last meal is no longer anything special and you just get whatever is served that evening.
I would definitely be a smart ass and ask for something like the warden's daughter. You think I'm gonna jump at their pointless offerings right before they kill me? Pfff how about a glass of fuck you as well. Die with a belly full of self respect
But if the question is just "what is your favorite meal" I'd say a grilled salmon filet, a buttery baked potato, and some asparagus. Maybe throw in a burger and fries from in n out in case I'm still craving saturated fat.

I'd love me a nice big ol T-bone steak, bloody, with a huge bowl of garlic mashed potatoes with extra butter and chopped up onions. Huge glass of milk Kept Cold because who wants to drink warm milk after your great session of slow-chewing steak.
I would eat a bunch of spicy pork rinds and egg nog. The idea behind this is to make me take the most raunchy and disgusting shit possible when all my muscles relax post-mortem, and literally make the people that prepare me for burial vomit when they get into my guts.
I would most likely have Korean BBQ, but I would have to cook it myself over an open grill with my friends. There is something about cooking your own meal that makes it more tasty

Don't see how that could be accurate. The cost for a last meal would pale in comparison to the amount spent on the rest of the incarceration / litigation. If anything they could impose a cap of like $100, but I doubt most last meals go over that.

Fun fact - Hitler was a vegetarian
I don't know why but in every thread about food, that statement pops up...
It would have to depend on where im being executed, rather than go with something generic (ex. Sushi in Texas? Cant imagine it would be that good) I would go with the town specialty

This is sad but also very true, I remember reading somewhere that most prisoners on death row don't actually ask for something really expensive or high class but rather food that their mom made or that reminded them of home or their childhood. It makes sense but is still sad to think about.

I'd have tuna sashimi, grilled eel, grilled salmon and raw cookie dough for dessert. All available locally and cheaply enough to have all in large amounts within budget. Fishing ports are good places to live near.

What a fucking dick. Way to ruin if for everyone else >.>
The real dickishness is from the senator who decided against it. According to him, it is highly inappropriate to give the condemned such a privilege (http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Last-meal-requests-come-to-an-end-on-Texas-death-2184484.php). By the time they get their last meal, the state has already spent something in order of hundreds of thousands of dollars on them anyway, so denying any last meals is just pure meanness.
Anyway, back on topic; Sautee'd reindeer and mashed potatoes. (I just hope death row is in Lapland...)

You would have come to terms with that a while ago, i mean if you did something so bad you got the death penalty, i doubt it would affect you that much to not eat some good food.
As for what i would eat: Mint oreo blizzard with a meatlovers pizza; why not? OR just get 40$ worth of food that would make the biggest mess and throw it at the guards for one last laugh before death.
OK, in all seriousness, one supreme pizza, one BBQ chicken pizza, one side order of boneless buffalo wings, a cinnamon bun, and a two liter bottle of soda.
Seafood stirfried noodles. Taro dumplings Ramen McChicken or something like that. (does mcchicken have cheese? If not, I want something with cheese0 Those jalapeno chips. Coca-Cola
I'd be pretty stuffed, and feel really good, probably take a nice nap afterwards. Reminds me, I need ot get some of this stuff even though it isn't my last meal.
Some form of authentic south-west fast food Mexican. Thinking a Texas burrito from Roberto's (gdlk chicken, like chicken good enough to get it over the carne asada alternative in a mexican dish + potatoes, beans and sour cream). A bunch of spicy tuna rolls and Las Vegas rolls. RC cola. Some really good corned beef hash. In N Out animal fries.
I guess that'll do for now, maybe top it off with a really authentic, old school chocolate shake.
A taco bell supreme fries A McDonald's Big Mac AW Mozza Burger Wendy's Baconator Deep fried california rolls with mayo-hotsauce and a warm glass cup of Milo

The default meal sounds good, as does the OP's choice.
Lately I've been really enjoying Greek food though. As long as you don't have to breathe on anyone after (and you won't) then that's the choice for me.
Greek food makes your breath smell? What Greek food specifically are we talking about here?

A lot of you seem to be wanting to take your last breath feeling like absolute shit. I honestly cannot say I'd be in the frame of mind to give a flying fuck about what I was going to eat for dinner.

2 double cheeseburgers from Mcdonald's, 12 piece chicken fries from Burger king, as well as 10 chicken nuggets and we gotta get la saouce. BBQ, honey mustard, sweet & sour and (I'm gonna steal another guy's post) pumpkin pie.... mmmmmmmm.
To drink?? I dunno prolly an oreo milkshake. I'm hungry now! BRB sammich time!!! :D :D

I'm not sure exactly what the rules are, but recently someone had ordered $160 worth of food and then touched none of it, bringing into question what they should be allowed to get. Maybe the $40 limit is new in response to this? Or maybe its state to state?
If I die after I finish eating, then I'll order a endless buffet and never stop eating to prevent me from dying. I'll just eat really slowly and take my time.

1 awesome steak, 1 awesome chicken teryaki, huge bowl of mashed potatoes, corn, maple sausage stuffing, mad onion rings, milk chocolate brownies, and then oreo ice cream. And I can't forget New York Pizza, and N.Y Chinese Food.
“Ted Bundy, famous serial killer; declined a special meal, so he was given the traditional steak (medium-rare), eggs (over-easy), hash browns, toast, milk, coffee, juice, butter, and jelly”
That sounds freaking amazing, I'd be happy to go with that... I mean... in a sense.
A chunk of McDonalds/Burger King and end it with a bottle of chili sauce + electrocution = massive watery diarrhea from every exit/entrance.. like a boss!
Pretty sure a lot of the time the inmates don't really get anything close to what they asked for. Dunno where I heard that but I know I have several times.
Anyway I would just ask for a bunch of Pizza Hut and I would die happy (and constipated).

from wiki:
Lawrence Russell Brewer: Two chicken fried steaks smothered in gravy with sliced onions; a triple meat bacon cheeseburger with fixings on the side; a cheese omelet with ground beef, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers and jalapenos; a large bowl of fried okra with ketchup; one pound of barbecue with half a loaf of white bread; three fajitas with fixings; a Meat Lovers pizza; three root beers; one pint of Blue Bell vanilla ice cream; and a slab of peanut butter fudge with crushed peanuts.[43] Brewer's request was granted, but he refused the meal when it arrived, prompting Texas to stop granting last meal requests to condemned inmates.[44]

if i would have a peanut allergy. i would just order some asian food with peanuts , some bread with peanut butter and as dessert peanut butter icecream. and while dying after the first bits, i would try to show em my middle finger and say :"fuck you, bitches, if theres a god, you will rot in hell for your law system." and then smile ofc just before you close your eyes for ever :D
sadly i dont have any food allergies. so i would go for an argentinian rumpsteak with swabian potatoe salad. and i would beg until they would grant me a single bottle of german beer. for desert i would go with 5 snickers bars ^^
or just simply anything cooked by my mum (i love your food so much <3 <3 )
I would probably want to eat a Subway. It's nothing special, but I would probably want to die eating what I live eating anyway . Either that or blueberry stuffed perogies with sweetened sourcream and milk.
I remember hearing somewhere that although inmates are allowed to request a last meal, they can only receive what the prison cooks are able to cobble together for them, which usually isn't so extravagant as they would probably like. On topic: I'd like a chipoltle burrito
Help me out on this one. What causes both explosive diarrhea and projectile vomiting? For this hypothetical, I'm imagining I'd have a hefty amount of resentment towards my executioners and I don't want so much of a last meal as a last spite.
I might ask for $40 worth of bitter almonds. About thirty of them should yield enough cyanide to kill a man my size. Then laugh my ass off when I'm rushed to ER for cyanide poisoning, postponing my execution.
"Surströmming" -> rotting fish (fairly common in sweden). I wouldn't eat it, I would fling it around the cell and everywhere, would take weeks to get the smell out! Mohaha!
If I couldn't get my wife to cook it, I'd ask for steak (medium-rare), garlic butter (LOTS of it), chips and pancakes with maple syrup and ice-cream. For a drink if I couldn't have bourbon I'd have just coke I guess or maybe a chocolate milkshake.
If I was allowed to have my wife cook I'd have her roast-chicken and potatoes and most importantly her chocolate mousse.
1/2 rack of BBQ ribs, could be from The Keg but homemade works too. 15 chicken wings: 5 spicy buffalo, 5 hot & honey, 5 sweet & spicy asian. A large bowl of coleslaw, KFC preferred. 2L of Pepsi. I think this would suffice.

Explosives are generally not safe to ingest for humans.
most anything that would be that sensitive would likely explode when you chewed it. might have some luck with plastic explosives but not likely.
i suppose you could lay on your back and run a reaction in your stomach to create a volatile liquid... then just jump up and down as they walk you to the chamber.

Why are people so eager to get some sort of revenge on the executioner? He is just a man doing his (unusual) job. He had NOTHING to do with your conviction.

This sir, you have good taste. I especially agree with the coleslaw.
A giant loaf of fresh baked bread with shredded beef inside covered in melted mozzarella cheese with hash browns being 'glued' by the melted mozzarella cheese to the beef. 2 Liter Gigantic Root Beer Float and a carton of Chocolate milk =D
Oh man, I'd have to go with: ~4 pancakes with real syrup (not that aunt jemima or mrs buttersworth shit), 2 piece o' bacon, 4 scrambled eggs, 2 ice cold cokes, and a very fucking well done and delicious vanilla milkshake.
$40...Hmm.. Caesar Salad - $7 Hawaiian Pizza Slice - $4 Garlic Bread - $3 One Portion of DUk Bok Gi - $8 Some Kalbi - $10 A 550Ml of Sprite and Coke - $2 Slice of Green Tea Ice Cream Cake - $5 Pack of Skittles $1
A little of each, and I think I'd be so full and ready to die by then :/

I have actually thought about this a lot. I settled on 5 big fluffy blueberry pancakes with whipped cream and blueberry syrup. Then a four egg omelet with bacon, ham, sausage, lots of cheese, tomatoes, peppers, and mushrooms. Add an enormous order of hash-browns with cheese and ham chunks, a fresh-baked biscuit with country-gravy, some fresh strawberries and cream, and plenty of milk and orange juice. *sigh*
I'd pretty much have a super awesome Greek dinner: BBQ'd Lamb, Tzatziki, Eggplant salad, carp roe salad, Greek village salad, Tiropita and Spanakopita, and Pastitsio and top it off with some Loukoumades and Greek yogurt with sour cherry syrup and figs. Yep that should totally be around 40-50$ and totally doable in the US. I'm so hungry now... wheres my last meal damn it!
A giant hot meatball sub, McDonalds fudge sundae and apple pies, some nice southern mashed potatoes, and something smooth to wash it down with, maybe iced tea or yellow Gatorade
Ultimate double whopper with onion rings, 2 packets of indomie mi goreng noodles with egg And a nice lasagne with salad At least a few pieces of pizza with meat lovers topping, and some bbq chicken topping. Pasta with tuna alfredo sauce At least one glass of a nice shiraz merlot cabernet blend (impartial to the brand) A cold beer And to top it all off a bowl of vanilla ice-cream with powdered milo on top.
I would die a very, very, happy man.
Oh, didnt see the $40 limit... Scratch the lasagne, everything else should fit in budget. (actually, some cheap $5 frozen lasagne might still fit in the limit)
Arghhhh how could i forget a meat pie! I want a meat pie too!
And if my alcohol requests get denied, I'll settle for a 1.25 litre bottle of coke.
Don't you all see that you should go and purchase yourselves such a dream-meal right now? How much better will it taste knowing you have your whole life in front of you? What's that you say? Can't appreciate anything until its threatened to be taken away? Ah, you too then, that's unfortunate. Okay.
For myself, I shall have a jumbo sized coke flavoured slush, a basket of poutine, and a big breakfast of steak and eggs, baked beans, eggs over easy, hash browns and some back and side bacon to boot.
There is actually a website out there where you can browse the files of inmates who were killed by the state and find out what their last meals were.
I came across it once, no idea what got me there as that certainly isn't spare-time reading; but I never managed to find it again. It was oddly sobering. Even though a lot of these people did horrible things, seeing some simple requests such as "ice cream" from a hardened criminal really humanized them.
Actually, in some states you can only request what they have in the prison kitchen at the time. And others allow take-out, but with a maximum of $15. California is one of the most generous states, with a $50 spending limit. Ty Treadwell, author of Last Suppers: Famous Final Meals from Death Row

Only in Texas i think after some guy ordered a ton of food and didn't eat anything.
lobster with buttersauce and some crab risotto on the side. Its very good and not hard to cook so the prison cooks would probably be able to do a descent job.
People seem to be forgetting about that $40 limit.
Anyway... I guess.... a wood-seared Salmon Steak to perfection, Kim Chi on the side, handful of rice, Sparking water of some sort with lemon squeezed in it, and a Creme Brulee desert with some strawberries , raspberries, or banana. Also a liter of lard.
Filet mignon, chicken breast, baked potato with cheese, bacon and sour cream to dip it in. I'd ask for more, but thats probably the 40$ limit from a local restaurant. To wash it down a bag of milk, which is cut just before serving to provide maximum freshness.

i was confused when you said a bag of milk.... i forgot Canadians get their milk in bags .
But i would probably order -Spaghetti & Meatballs -Garlic Bread -Salad(Made by grandma?) -Ice cream -And finally, a steak.(i wouldn't so much as eat the steak, but I would take the steak knife, kill the guard in the room and try to escape[after eating all the food i ordered first])

Lol. They dont allow knives into the prison if they request steak. The steak is pre-cut before being served. I would request a large pizza with bacon, onion, and mushroom (with Papa John's garlic sauce on the side), some General-Tsao's chicken with chicken fried rice, and ice-cold Pepsi.

Those poor animals who gave their lives to create that meat, their deaths would be in vain if it was not eaten. Personally, I find that much more depressing than some white supremacist murderer getting what he deserves.
" but he did not eat any of it and the meal was discarded, prompting Texas prison officials to end the 87-year-old tradition"
wtf they just discarded all that food? They have no morals whatsoever.
Fuck the $40, I'd ask if I could cook for myself. I make the best smoked-salmon fettuccine with penne on Earth ... So I'd use the $40 for ingredients then, haha.
