Based on the favourite food thread - if you could only pick one of each for the rest of your life what would they be?

Carb - French baguette
Fruit - Tomato
Vegetable - Broccoli
Protein - Cheese (cheddar, though I'd be sad to lose Brie)

If I had to eat that as a meal 3 times and day for the res tof my life I don't think I'd mind. And I LOVE variety.

@DameHelena those are some fun picks! Definitely with you on the fig. Fresh or dried? Or both...
