Benny Blanco’s Last Meal? Selena Gomez’s Corn Casserole Steals the Spotlight!
Picture this: the world of celebrity cooking where culinary preferences could make or break a last meal request. In a recent episode of “Table Manners with Jessie and Lennie Ware,” Benny Blanco spilled the beans on what he’d choose as his final feast, and spoiler alert—it involves Selena Gomez’s corn casserole. Yes, folks, this is the riveting content we crave. “We’re big on casserole,” Gomez quipped, explaining that this delightful dish is essentially a sweet cornbread. Blanco reminisced about his childhood, where corn was basically a food group, especially during Thanksgiving. So, if you ever thought “corn” was just a vegetable, think again—it’s a lifestyle choice for these two.
Blanco, 37, is clearly a man of taste, as he enthusiastically declared Gomez’s dish as his “last supper.” Nothing says romance like a casserole, right? Meanwhile, Gomez shared her own culinary desires, hinting at her fiancé’s ribeye steak being on her hypothetical last meal menu. “I do like a ribeye, and then I usually smoke it low for a long time, and then I sear it at the end,” Blanco detailed, as if he were describing the next big blockbuster instead of a hunk of meat. Because nothing says “I love you” like a perfectly smoked steak.
But wait, there’s more! Gomez laid out her own extensive menu, which sounds like a food critic’s nightmare. She’d want a smorgasbord of dishes, including her grandmother’s rice, tamales, and even a cheeky Taco Bell Mexican pizza. Because nothing says “final meal” like fast food that’ll haunt you in the afterlife. Blanco even noted that she’d want a “Coke slushie” and movie theater nachos for that authentic “last hurrah” vibe. It’s almost as if they’re planning a culinary funeral, complete with a side of nostalgia.
Gomez chimed in to correct Blanco, who had forgotten the pièce de résistance: Benihana’s fried rice. Because if you’re going to leave this world, why not do so while savoring the taste of a chain restaurant? The irony of these two lovebirds crafting their last meals with such specificity is almost poetic—if poetry were written by someone who thrives on carbohydrates and nostalgia.
So, what’s the takeaway here? If you’re planning your own last meal, make sure to include a casserole, a ribeye steak, and maybe a side of “what were we thinking?” Tune in next time for more culinary adventures that may or may not lead to food comas.
