Some of the most common meals that death row inmates request include:
  • Steak dinner with potatoes
  • Fried chicken with biscuits
  • A pint of ice cream or pie à la mode
  • Large pizza and a milkshake
  • Cheeseburger and fries

Rules vary by state, and some prisons don't allow death row inmates to request specific food for their last meal. Some areas only allow meals made in a prison kitchen, while others allow outside food as long as it can be purchased in the area. Some states also set price caps, such as a limit of $40.

What would you choose for your last meal?

I would eat some a custom-made bowl from Mongolian Barbecue, with a 2 liter (VERY COLD) Dr. Pepper, and a bowl of cookie dough Ice cream.
