I've never come up with one. I'm not sure I could enjoy it anyway. But I thought this lady's choice was interesting:

http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/le...ution-georgia-woman-kelly-gissendaner-n435566

She requested her final meal last week: cheese dip with chips, Texas fajita nachos and a diet frosted lemonade.

Maybe she's a true optimist. Or maybe she just refuses to be taken off her diet, even right up to the very end.

If they stay on schedule, she should meet her maker in 10 to 15 minutes.
 
Red Fish on the half shell, 8 oz prime filet and a loaded baked potato with asparagus.
 
BTW, SCOTUS has just denied yet another last minute appeal for a stay of execution. This has got to be a maddening for everyone involved......family, witnesses, executee. This is already the 3rd time her execution has been scheduled. So, 2 hours late will they go ahead and do it now? Georgia scotus could still spare her, but that seems doubtful.

Ok, first item on my last menu is well-seasoned fried oysters.
 
OK. So she got the death penalty but the dude that actually did the physical killing gets life. Seems like both should have gotten the death penalty or neither.

Looking at her, the boyfriend's attorney probably didn't have much trouble convincing a jury that he had to be mentally challenged in the first place. She took advantage of a mentally weak person and puppeteered him into committing murder.....but she was the evil mastermind while he was the less devious mental midget.

Seriously though, I suspect it was part of a plea deal: They agreed to only recommend him for a life sentence if he'd agree to testify against her. They needed testimony of the conspiracy in order to have a decent chance to nail anybody with a full death sentence.
 
He made a plea and testified against her. She had an opportunity to make a similar deal but demanded a jury trial and got what she got.
 
Any All-I-Can-Eat buffet and I'll be the judge as to when I've had all I could eat.
 
King crab. Butter. Maybe an arugula salad with a rice wine vinaigrette. Unfiltered Chardonnay.

For dessert
Waffle house hash browns, scattered, smothered, covered and chunked. Whiskey.
 
My Lord........they didn't finally execute the woman until after Midnight, when it was scheduled for 7 PM.

Now I know what all those appeals were really about -- She had to have gotten TWO last meals!

Score!!
 
eh, its time we move out of our barbaric past and do away with the death penalty all together. We're one of the few civilized countries who still has it as an option and we use it a lot compared to all the countries who do. We fall only behind China, Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia in the number of executions each year and are found higher than the Sudan, Yemen, etc...
 
Caesar salad then a 16 oz prime rib, two lobster tails, smashed new potatoes, asparagus and yeast rolls. Wash it down with some tea with lemon.
 
For my last meal I'll order a whiskey Sour made with Pappy Van Winkle 23 reserve(yeah, so shoot me), Creamed spinach, and another whiskey Sour made withPappy Van Winkle 23 reserve. For the main course - a whiskey Sour made withPappy Van Winkle 23 reserve and A Japanese bred whole waygu rib roast cooked to 130 degrees in the center, served with sautéed blonde asparagus with truffle slices and topped with a bernaise sauce and another whiskey Sour made withPappy Van Winkle 23 reserve. For dessert - a bourbon chocolate pecan pie made with Pappy Van Winkle 23 reserve and for my Apéritif I'll have a whole bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 23 yo reserve!
 
If I knew for sure I was out of appeals, and stressed to my attorney that he was not to file anything that might cause a delay, I'd have a huge plate of crab legs.

I used to love them, but in my late 20s developed a severe allergy to them & haven't eaten them in 25 years.
 
If you knew you were about to be executed, how would you have any appetite?

Maybe they're hard asses like Stonewall Jackson.

"Captain, my religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time for my death. I do not concern myself about that, but to be always ready, no matter when it may overtake me. Captain, that is the way all men should live, and then all would be equally brave."

Somewhere online was a list of last meals (Texas?)
Most amusing one was a large bag of Jolly Ranchers.

Disagree. My only problem with it is that it is too easy on the perp.

I think we should hang them.
