Have you ever wondered what some famous dead people had as their last meal? Well, lucky for you, someone was taking notes and provided your answers in a handy chart.

A Quick Bite Before They Headed Off, by Sarah Lazarovic at the National Post, not only documents the last thing a few celebs and historical figures ate last, but arranges the meals by caloric content and fanciness.

No surprise that Elvis is way up high to the left. Also nice to see that Cleopatra was a fan.

Elvis Oreo

To help commemorate Elvis Week — a celebration of The King of Rock and Roll’s life, and the anniversary of his passing — Oreo made him into a cookie. Elvis Oreo is part of Nabisco’s uber-brilliant Daily Twist campaign — a series that is taking us through 100 days of significant news events and milestones in cookie form.

You may remember Oreo had recently caused a stir with their fictitious rainbow version during Gay Pride Week. Which reminds me… Hey, Nabisco… We’re still waiting for our Sextuple Stuf Oreo. What’s the holdup?
