What Would Your Last Meal Be? - Open & Closed Mississippi Restaurant Edition

In the "Last Meal" segment of Episode 1,119 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards poses the question of the day: If you could choose your final meal before death, what would it be? Inspired by the Ruthless podcast, Edwards ponders his own choices, from a classic steak to local favorites like country fried steak at Martin's, red beans and rice with sausage from McB's, or veal cutlets from now-closed Jackson staples such as the Elite or Mayflower. He emphasizes flexibility, allowing picks from home-cooked meals, current restaurants, or nostalgic spots from Central Mississippi's culinary history.   Edwards engages listeners by reading texted and commented suggestions, sparking lively debates on details like white vs. brown gravy, Mexican vs. regular cornbread, and sides such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or fried okra. He reminisces about beloved defunct eateries, including Pizza Inn's pre-franchise pizza, Pizza Express's mozzarella-heavy slices, Scotty's on Terry Road, Dennery's, the Cherokee's roast beef, Gridley's hot barbecue sauce, and even the Elite's enchiladas. The conversation evokes food nostalgia, with Edwards admitting it left him hungry and planning a hearty lunch.   The segment wraps with more listener ideas, like rib eye steak sandwiches from Cypress Point, dirty bird sandwiches from Burgers Blues Barbecue, poppy seed chicken from Two Sisters, and crab legs with crawfish, blending humor, local lore, and audience interaction for a fun, appetite-stirring start to the show.
