25 Strangest Death Row Inmate Last Meal Choices

In most countries and societies which execute inmates with the death penalty, prisoners generally receive a last meal which they use to request just about anything. But, did you know the last meal has superstitious roots? Since eating is generally done in a social setting, the prisoner accepting and eating the food symbolized his or her making peace with those around, whether it be the executioner, judge, witnesses, or accusers. It was believed this ritual would keep the executed from coming back as a ghost to haunt their killers. Though such superstition isn't widely popular these days, the tradition of offering an inmate his or her last meal is. In this list, we dish up some of the most bizarre and oddest choices death row inmates selected for their last meals. Whether it be a request including 5 pounds of cheese and 10 cups of ranch dressing or an ominous last meal warning, or whether it be the last meal of notorious dictators such as Adolf Hitler or Saddam Hussein, there's plenty of strange and unexpected last meal choices in this list (and even a few that will have you shaking your head). Read on to find out the 25 strangest death row inmate last meal choices.
