[DOOMSDAY SPECIAL] We Ask The Foodbeast Staff What They’d Eat On the World’s Last Day
Since Doomsday is just around the corner and we’re ravenous 24/7, it was natural for the Foodbeast team to contemplate what our last meals on Earth would be. We think the answer says a lot about a person. In our case, we like our booze, cheese and protein — because when we eat, we also like to party… like there’s no tomorrow. Too soon? #YOLO

“The burger from Playground in Downtown Santa Ana, CA. Animal Style fries from In-N-Out. Garbage bag full of Sour Patch Kids.”
Rudy Chaney – Product Development Director
“Costco Pepperoni Pizza and a handle of Popov.”
Charisma Madarang – Associate Editor
“An entire plate of sashimi tuna, a Yeti Imperial Stout and a warm chocolate chip cookie.”
Dominique Zamora – Staff Writer
“I don’t really care what I eat, but I really, really, really want one of those blue ‘holiday edition’ traffic cone cups from Carsland [at Disney’s California Adventure]. I know it’s just soda inside but I’ve been wanting one forever so if I wasn’t stuck at work today, I’d totally be there hoarding all the ones I could find. They’re too cute.”
Marc Kharrat – Foodbeast TV Producer
“The Carbonara Chicken sandwich from Holstein’s in Las Vegas, NV. Chilli Cheese fries from The Hat. A bottle of Special Reserve Jameson whiskey. A jar of Nutella and a handful of bacon-wrapped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.”

“I was going to say fresh ceviche from an actual Spanish-speaking country. But then I thought if it’s my last meal, calories don’t count. In that case, please see that I am buried in a six-foot deep Pyrex dish of Mark Bittman’s peach cobbler. With extra cobble, please. ”

“My last meal would be the truffle burger from Umami Burger with McDonalds fries and a few Del Taco strawberry churros for dessert.”
Danielle Mooradian – Contributor
“Although not very original, my last meal would be pepperoni and mushroom pizza with extra cheese, and an ice cream sundae for dessert. That’s my big apocalyptic F you to lactose intolerance!”
Cristiana Wilcoxon – Contributor
“My last meal would be Annie’s white cheddar mac & cheese with blood orange soda followed by some unbaked sugar cookie dough. Never grow up. ”
Brian Yamamoto – Contributor
“A grass-fed 32oz Porterhouse steak served rare accompanied by a glass of 15-year-old rye whiskey served neat so I can go out with some acumen of class and dignity. Followed promptly by a plate of pizza roll snacks with a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie a la mode to go out like a true Foodbeast.”

“My last meal would have to be a bacon burger with a fried egg. I’ve only made it once, and fell in food love at first bite. On the side I’d have sweet potato fries and sautéed brussel sprouts. And, obviously, a good beer, or two, to wash it down.”
Emily Villanueva – Contributor
“I’m afraid my last supper would be pretty boring — in times of distress (or impending apocalypse) I always go for homey, comfort food that reminds me of my childhood. My mom’s potato salad and garlic spaghetti, my grandma’s cassava cake, my grandpa’s persimmon bread. Basically, my culinary equivalent of a hug.”
Isai Rocha – Contributor
“A pastrami sandwich from Katz Deli, a side of hot wings and a tall glass of Coke.
Dominique Boubion – Contributor
“Bibimbap. Since I didn’t grow up with Korean food, I will never eat it, nor all of its accompanied side dishes, enough times.”
The Glut Life (Zach and Jason) – Recipe Contributor
“For our last meal we’re going to have to go Hannibal Lecter style… C’mon don’t play like you’ve never wondered. Plus if we’re all going to turn into zombies might as well prep the palate. “
