Reader Friday: Death Row Dining

You’re on death row and your number’s been called up. Time to meet your Maker. But before you go, put in your request for your last meal. What is it?

Me? Send the largest charcuterie board you can muster, and a bottle of red wine.

  1. Oh my, dinner and death. I expect my gut would be twisting in knots while doing flip flops so food better be easy on stomach.

    Mac and cheese with peppermint ice cream for dessert.

    OTOH, maybe a Mexican feast with enchiladas, chile rellenos, tacos with lots of guacamole, and frozen Margaritas. Under those circumstances, I won’t wake up in the middle of the night with acid reflux.

  2. A Manhattan to start. If it’s my last meal, it doesn’t have to be coordinated. Edamame to munch on for starters. Black risotto from Croatia, which might give me a slight stay while they had to go get it. Lobster with drawn butter. A tribute to my father, Haagen Dazs coffee ice cream. With chocolate sauce and whipped cream and a Luxardo cherry (since they had to open the jar for my Manhattan, and it would bookend the meal.)
