No Seconds
NYT Food section reported on recent studies about last meals requested by prisoners on death row. Last October, in Missouri, an inmate consumed a gyro, a smoked brisket sandwich, two portions of fries, a cola and a banana split. With nary a belch he went on to meet his maker. Contrast that menu with Timothy McVeigh's request for a double order of chocolate chip ice cream. Over all the study determined that seventy percent of inmates requested fried foods. Sort of eating fried before getting fried. Ouch!
