Cleopatra's Last Meal...

Cleopatra VII Philopator. Queen of Egypt.
She was living in denial, because... Well she was literally
living off de Nile. De Nile river (denial). Large river that runs through Egypt. Get it?
Er, okay.
Cleopatra was one of the most well known rulers of Egypt. There were many queens of Egypt, but the only one that stands out to this day is Cleopatra.
As powerful women rise to power, Cleopatra certainly knew how the game was played, and played it well.
She co-ruled Egypt with her father Ptolemy XII Auletes.
Just to show you that her lust for power knew no bounds, after her father's passing she ruled with her brother/husband Ptolemy XIV. After Ptolemy's passing, she then ruled with her son Caesarion.
Ever moving up, she eyed the Roman empire. Constantly expanding, she consummated a relationship with Julius Caesar that solidified her grip on the throne. However, a little group led by Brutus nixed that deal and Cleopatra soon aligned with Mark Antony, with whom she produced twins. She later married Mark Antony and gave birth to another son.
With the Roman empire's baking you'd think her grip on Egypt would be unquestionable. However Antony's rival and Caesar's legal heir, Octavian, brought the might of Rome against Egypt. Unable to stand against the might of the Roman navy. Egypt was swept up by the empire. Antony committed suicide and Cleopatra followed after him.

She enjoyed one last deadly meal. It was

Figs

Not your run of the mill figs. These figs had the secret surprise of a deadly asp hiding in the bottom of the bowl. You know what they say about figs? You just can't eat one. Reaching deeper into the bottom of the bowl for the next fig was her last, and thus ended a dynasty.
