My vote is for Chankonabe, a Japanese stew designed for sumo wrestlers. Lots of protein, lots of vegetables for vitamins and minerals, and lots broth to help with water intake. Even with a strict recipe it's got pretty much everything. Plus if it's a survival situation it's perfect for a body building on a deserted island.

My parents in their younger days did grow up basically eating only sweet potatoes every single meal.

current scientific understanding is that aftertaste is simply the taste of the molecules after all of the chemical and physical interactions are mostly completed. remember that your mouth is full of mainly water, amylase and lingual lipase all of which will do organic chemistry things to the food inside your mouth. then when you swallow the more sticky stuff (stuff with stronger intermolecular forces or charged ions actually bonding to the inside of your mouth) will be left behind, and your taste receptors will begin sensing those things instead of the wine and fish you just swallowed. don't drink wine and fish, it smells. anyways, yes, there have been breakthroughs in chemicals that can block the taste receptors sensing these specific aftertaste-making molecules. however if i'm being honest the only real cost effective use for it is in really disgusting medicines that need to be prescribed to children; a lot of the pharmaceutical engineering behind children's medicines is making them taste nice.

There is another factor to consider when looking at foods you can eat all the time. Regardless of nutrient density is a phenomenon i've heard called "food sameness" where if you eat the same food too much, your body can start having a visceral reaction to that food. Like if you at that Veggie delight every day, you might start feeling sick when you try to eat it. It is definitely a factor you have to consider. You would need to pick a food that you make prepare in many different ways to change flavors up while also maintaining the same essential nutrients.

Would a soup in a bread bowl count as a food you could eat every day of your life while still providing the vitamins, minerals, calories, protein, and fiber the human body needs to function properly? Because essentially you could create any soup you wanted to achieve the proper nutrition the body needs while providing some hydration from the liquid of the soup. I don't know the quantity of certain ingredients you would need to actually achieve proper nutrition but hey, at least it's food for thought.

My only concern with spinach on a pizza would be if it's cooked in the oven or topped afterwards. If you cook the spinach, you run a very high risk of killing tons of the nutrients in the greens because of how hellishly hot those ovens are.

the fact that you named my exact chipotle buritto is astounding

You know those days where you don't care about eating, but you do it anyways because you're a good, responsible kid? Steamed sweet potatoes and spinach stir-fry! It's a very regular dish in my life, with a gratuitous medium boiled egg. Thanks for helping me make one less decision, Matt Patt and the Theorist team!

The other question based off this is “if you can force your worst enemy to eat one food for the rest of their life, what do you choose?” And there IS a correct answer to that. The correct answer? Whatever they want. Why? Because then you get to watch as they slowly start to hate their favorite food.

It should check off most of the nutritional boxes, the main ingredients are potatoes, milk, and spinach (or kale) and it's both tasty (serve with vinegar and a little nutmeg) and easy to make.

You could survive on basically any savory food alone. A pizza contains vitamins, minerals, glucose, carbs, and protein (most of the materials you need to have enough energy. Pasta, lasagna, burgers, sandwiches and most foods do aswell.

When I saw the title of this video, 3 answers came to mind: hot pot, bugs, and suppliments. Hot pot has many veggies, proteins, and the broth can quench your thirst if water isn't allowed. There is also a boba hot pot that can act as dessert. Bugs are living beings that need the food humans need to survive so they pack a lot of proteins and vitamins. Suppliments are a last resort because I think that they can check off all the needs but don't fill you up and some of them have to be taken hours before or after other suppliments.

Now that just what i would pick if someone wants to be like "what specific ingredients?" But if i want a food that has a vast variety that i could never be tired of, Sushi.
