The last meal is a traditional part of a condemned prisoner's last day. The day before the appointed time of execution, the prisoner will be given the meal, as well as religious rites, if he or she desires.In many countries the prisoner may have the luxury of selecting what the last meal will be (within reason), and the authorities do their best to provide a prisoner with the requested meal.

When a death order has been issued, the condemned prisoner is informed in the morning of his or her execution. The condemned is given their choice of the last meal. The prisoner's family and legal representatives are never informed until afterwards. Consequently, there is no possibility of a final meeting.

This is what most ‘muricans are paying attention to. Never mind that between last Friday and Sunday, 16 ‘murican servicemen were killed in Iraq, or that the USDOJ has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the political wing of the executive branch. What 'murica wants to know is: What did Paris eat as her first jailhouse meal?

WTF? It was a frivolous last statement among the dour moods of the people who had a hand in Robert Charles Comer's execution, from the cook who prepared his last meal to the medically-trained personnel who gave the lethal injection.

It's true. His last meal request was fulfilled after his execution at a Tennessee correctional facility.

Man's last wish, "to have some pizza" before execution through lethal injection was refused.
