In the United States of America most states give the meal a day or two prior to execution, and use the euphemism "special meal". Alcohol or tobacco is usually denied. An unorthodox or unavailable request will be replaced with a substitute. Some states place tight restrictions. For example, Texas limits last meals to food available within the prison system, though occasionally brings in food "from the free world". In Florida, the food for the last meal must be purchased locally and the cost is limited to $40. In fact, Maryland does not offer the condemned a special last meal.
