You can only pick one thing to eat for the rest of your life. What is it?

Inspired by the poster who has the same lunch/dinner 6 times this week!

Pick one thing that you have to eat for every meal/snack for the rest of your life. It can't be something vague like 'curry' or 'tapas'- this dish remains the same indefinitely, with absolutely no variations in cooking style, no additional ingredients etc.

I'm struggling to form an answer to my self made hypothetical dilemma .. what would be yours?

Cheese

JadeSeahorse · 21/04/2023 23:54

Cake!

Any flavour so long as it has lashings of buttercream. 🥰

Taramasalata with endless soft warm pitta and loads of different veg to dip. Divine. Followed by a Star Bar 🥰

Chilli and rice

Cornish pasties with a side of buttery crumpets.

Can you tell I like carbs? More ironically I'm gluten intolerant but I've decided I can ignore that given it's fantasy world.

You have excellent taste 😆

OK, a salad containing rocket, red pepper, cucumber, sun dried tomatoes, roasted red onion, radishes, black olives, marinated carrot and red cabbage, plus falafel, hummus, yogurt dip, grilled halloumi, sweet chilli sauce and pitta bread.

And if we’re allowed dessert, I’ll have chocolate cake with Belgian chocolate icing.

Lentil dhal, rice and coconut sambal. With a couple of roti.

Strawberries and raspberries for pudding

Sunday roast. Covers a good proportion of the major food groups. Meat (iron, protein, fat), potatoes (carbs, vitamins) carrots, parsnips, peas, sweetcorn (more vitamins, fibre), cauli cheese (vitamins, fibre, calcium, protein, fat), yorkies (carbs, more vitamins from the egg), could even have pigs in blankets to add some porky deliciousness, and obviously a decent gravy. I'd probably pick beef, for the iron, but if you went with pork you could add apples, or with turkey cranberries. So which meat to pick would depend on whether I could have a dessert, what with it being Sunday dinner, and then would go with fruit salad (pear, banana, grapes, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, mandarin orange) with low fat yoghurt, which would then mean not needing to pick a meat that allowed for a fruit in the main. And adding lots of vitamins, plus calcium.

Also, it's yummy.

Pasta bolognese

TableFor5 · 22/04/2023 00:59

Has to be toast! 2 slices of white toast, one with just butter, the other with butter and jam or lemon curd.

handsoffate · 22/04/2023 01:09

Cheese, nuts and an apple.
If I’m only allowed one food item then just the cheese.

Eye fillet steak cooked on the bbq, with creamy mushroom sauce, smashed potatoes (par boiled, squashed, then drizzled with olive oil and roasted) and steamed asparagus.

top marks for detail, though I feel getting the bbq out to cook your fillet steak might become tedious and inconvenient quickly! I admire your commitment 😉
