Somewhat macabre question

[velvetpage]

If you knew for certain that you were going to die within a week, what would you eat in the intervening days/hours, and why?



I'd eat a roast beef dinner the way my mom makes it, with pumpkin pie to finish it off; a traditional gruyère cheese fondue with real baguettes, made according to a basic Swiss recipe; the biggest brownie/fudge sundae combo I could get a local restaurant to make for me; really rich, real ice cream (no frozen yogurt for this week!) in various flavours including chocolate, chocolate mint, and burgundy cherry; Lindt mint chocolate and milk chocolate; a turkey dinner, with stuffing as my mom makes it and no brussels sprouts.

Mostly traditional comfort foods, in other words, though at least one of them is one I rarely eat; I've had cheese fondues perhaps twice since my last trip to France, and only one of them (the one I made) was done right.

hmm the Sunday Life section of the Straits Times has a feature on its backpage every Sunday (well, d'uh but you mightn't realize not having been acquainted to it) where they'll interview a prominent figure (often, an expatriate) and ask what their last meals would be. Most of them choose something really simple, like porridge or rice with soy sauce!
