You're stuck on a desert island with clean water. There is no edible food on the island. You can request daily deliveries of 10 foods in any quantity and these foods remain the same for life. Go. |  |

It was more difficult than I thought.
Tomatoes and onions are a must. |  |

Agreed. Tomatoes would likely take #10 on my list. Unless I could count tomato puree as a condiment and use one of those 5... | |

As an aside, it didn't escape my attention that you have figs in there.
They go so well with lamb don't they. | |

Is it an American thing where they bastardise everything they can? |
It was actually whilst on holiday in Egypt. I'd only experienced the UK shop standard ones before.
Bit like only tasting Baclava in your local kebab shop, then experiencing the same thing 100% better on your hols. |  | | |

It was a tough call between figs, avocados and chocolate. Figs won for the versatility: good with lamb and the morning keffir. | |

Beans and nuts are small things. They are dry and don't take up any space in the larder. Anyway, it's nearly Christmas. BTW, you are still my favourite poster on the site. | |

Maybe I am a bit too confident that I can get by on what I can pick, catch and snare but if I can get that lot delivered every week for a few years until I get rescued, then sneak back to collect, I'm minted. [Post edited 21 Nov 2017 23:12]

I'm shocked no one's mentioned fresh coconut yet - I read years ago that a human could live healthily off this (+ its milk) & nothing else for the rest of their lives. Unfortunately tho I used to love it, I've become allergic to it, so my list (only things I can tolerate OK obviously) would be -
Salted peanuts
Rump Steak
Eggs
Bread
Potatoes
Spring onions
Lettuce
Asparagus
Fresh olives
Ecomil almond milk, chocolate version :) |  |

You think your insincere flattery can sway me?
Well you're right, objection withdrawn. This will lead to chaos though as people change their answers from things like apples to fruit and carrots to vegetables. | |
