Elvis Presley passed on August 16, 1977, at his Memphis mansion while enjoying the last meal he'd ever have: four scoops of vanilla ice cream and six chocolate chip cookies.
Presley's tastes leaned heavily towards soul food, such as collard greens and family-sized bowls of banana pudding, staying true to his upbringing in rural Mississippi.
With his wealth, Elvis could have had the absolute best of the best for his final meal, but instead, he had Sealtest ice cream and Chips Ahoy! cookies.
Having already eaten a lot of spaghetti and meatballs, Elvis told his cook he wanted "ice cream and cookies, but not as much as usual"; he died of a heart attack shortly after.
