OUR FINAL EPISODE IS HERE! And we're going out with a bang! In our final ever episode of What the Food?, we explore the strange, symbolic, and sometimes darkly funny world of famous last meals.
From the elaborate feasts of Roman emperors to the fast-food cravings of modern serial killers, the final meal is a fascinating window into the human psyche. We'll uncover the superstitious origins of the tradition (it involves warding off ghosts) and reveal what the last requests of figures like John Wayne Gacy, Ted Bundy, Abraham Lincoln, and Mahatma Gandhi say about their lives and deaths.
Join us for one final journey that's filled with defiance, dignity, and one truly bizarre request for a lump of dirt. It's an episode that proves the last meal is more than just food, it's a final statement.
Thank you for being with us on this amazing journey of What the Food?. We can't thank you enough for listening to us talk about food history over the past few years. And who knows, we may be back one day, but for now, it's goodbye!
