] HOUSTON, Texas (Reuters) -- The final meals of executed
] prisoners are off the menu on the Texas prison system's
] Internet site.
]
] Texas, which far and away leads all U.S. states in
] executions since a national death penalty ban was lifted
] in 1976, has long listed details of the meals on the
] prison system's Web site, www.tdcj.state.tx.us.
]
] But Michelle Lyons, a spokeswoman for the Texas
] Department of Criminal Justice, said they were removed
] last week during a redesign of the site.
]
] "We had some complaints from people in both the U.S. and
] abroad that it might be in poor taste to distribute that
] information on the Web site," she said.

Why is it in poor taste to have the last meal requests on the web site, when last statements are still there?
