last meal

A condemned prisoner's last meal is a customary ritual preceding execution. In many countries, the prisoner may, within reason, select what the last meal will be.

Contemporary restrictions in the United States

Contrary to the common belief that all last meal requests, regardless of their complexity, must be fulfilled, various restrictions are in place over what can be requested.{{Cite web |last=Mikkelson |first=David |date=October 30, 2014 |title=Death Row Inmate Asks for a Child As His Last Meal, Texas DOC Plan to Grant Request? |url=https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/texas-two-misstep/ |access-date=June 25, 2024 |website=Snopes}}{{Cite news |last=Beam |first=Christopher |date=November 10, 2009 |title=I'll Have 24 Tacos and the Filet Mignon |url=https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2009/11/can-a-prisoner-request-anything-for-his-last-meal.html |access-date=June 25, 2024 |work=Slate}}

In the United States, most states give the meal a day or two before the actual execution and now use the euphemism "special meal". Alcohol and tobacco are usually, but not always, denied. Unorthodox or unavailable requests are replaced with similar substitutes. Some states place tight restrictions. Sometimes, a prisoner asks to share the last meal with another inmate (as Francis Crowley did with John Resko in 1932) or has the meal distributed among other inmates (as requested by Raymond Fernandez in 1951).{{cite book |url=https://archive.org/details/peoplesalmanacpr03wall |title=The Book of Lists #3 |publisher=Bantam |year=1983 |isbn=978-0-553-27868-2 |pages=[https://archive.org/details/peoplesalmanacpr03wall/page/85 85–87] |url-access=registration}}

In Florida, the food for the last meal must be purchased locally and the cost is limited to $40.{{cite web|title=Death Row Fact Sheet |work=Florida Department of Corrections |url=http://www.dc.state.fl.us/oth/deathrow/index.html |access-date=11 November 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080612151254/http://www.dc.state.fl.us/oth/deathrow/index.html |archive-date=12 June 2008 }} In Oklahoma, the cost is limited to $25. In Louisiana, the prison warden traditionally joins the condemned prisoner for the last meal. On one occasion, the warden paid for an inmate's lobster dinner.{{cite web|last=Turner|first=Allan|date=2011-09-23|title=Last-meal requests come to an end on Texas death row|url=http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Last-meal-requests-come-to-an-end-on-Texas-death-2184484.php|work=Houston Chronicle|access-date=23 September 2011|archive-date=24 September 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110924080519/http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Last-meal-requests-come-to-an-end-on-Texas-death-2184484.php|url-status=live}}

In Texas, the tradition of customized last meals is thought to have been established around 1924.{{cite web |date=2011-09-22 |title=Last-meal requests off death row menu |work=San Antonio Express-News |url=http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/local_news/article/Last-meal-tradition-for-death-row-inmates-2184368.php |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110925012525/http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/local_news/article/Last-meal-tradition-for-death-row-inmates-2184368.php |archive-date=25 September 2011 |access-date=25 September 2011}} However, in September 2011, the state of Texas abolished all special meal requests after condemned prisoner Lawrence Brewer requested a large and expensive meal, but did not eat any of it, stating that he was not hungry. Since then, the prisoner's last meal is the prison meal that is being served in the Huntsville Unit cafeteria on the day of execution.{{cite web | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z13UwA9UzeY&t=621s | title=Death Row the Final 24 Hours Documentary & Discovery HD Channel Official | website=YouTube | date=24 April 2015 }}
