Ha Ha Gregg! I like your recipe.
OK, maybe I wasn't making myself clear, or 'splaining it right. I'm not talking about some plumpy nut for the western world, or about giving up a variety of foods. I am in no way planning on just eating one thing for the rest of my life. I was just contemplating on world diets.
1) there are cultures, small indigenous peoples who eat pretty much the same thing everyday, be it beans and rice, some bread stuff toasted over a hot rock, or smashed grubs in rubber tree roots...whatever! Either that's all they can afford, or make, or grow...whatever reason.(are we so spoiled by our embarrassment of choice that we aren't even aware of these cultures/diets?)
2) these diets aren't known for good health and long life because they are so limited.
3)I was just wondering out loud what kind of 'same thing' would be nutritious and sustainable, and by sustainable I mean you could grow/raise the ingredients yourself to mirror the indigenous clans 'grow it produce it themselves' limited diet/dish. I'm not advocating eating this one thing every day, I'm just wondering what that dish would look like.

That's all people! Just wondering out loud. What would a dish that COULD sustain you look like? (This IS the food and recipe forum, right?)
