Bad Drawing of Jeremy Morris by Taco State
Dinner, The King James Version
Over the years I have always been intrigued by what prisoners take as their last meal. I guess being a foodie and an arm chair psychologist, it's just a fascinating thing to look at. Usually they want fried chicken, McDonalds or other unhealthy, if innocuous, last suppers. The most defiant last meal I can remember reading about was a prisoner who requested a plate of dirt, but this meal takes it to the next level of depravity.
Tax payers can rest assured that no additional expenses were incurred in procuring this highly quotable meal. According to Prison Director, Frank Davis, the meal did not violate policies regarding last meals and that it stayed within the required $40 final meal budget. But meal choice irony aside, you would think that this obvious Satanist might prefer consuming Anton LaVey's The Satanic Bible or even the Rituale Romanum, the Latin book of exorcism. There's just no accounting for taste or good sense. Morris is scheduled to die today by lethal injection.
Stories like this always beg the question, "What would I order as a last meal?" I would probably keep it simple. I know I would want to eat a Pork Adobo or if that could not be done in an authentic way and cooked to perfection, I would settle for a basic, fresh basil pesto with linguini, extra toasted pinenuts, fresh parmesan and a nice crusty Italian bread. What would you have?
