If you could choose only one veggie to live off for a year, what would it be?


Rules:

– climate isn’t a issue, let’s pretend it grows year round

– you can cook it anyway you like with seasoning but you can’t add any other veggies, meats etc

– you would have to grow it and keep the plants heathy

    Wheat. Assuming you can make sauces and stuff.

    It’s probably going to have to be potatoes eaten with the Skins on in terms of actual survival food…
    But who would choose a life without beans and cruciferous greens and tomatoes and peppers and all the rest…. ?

    Probably something where every part of the veggie is edible for variety. Maybe daikon? Celeriac? Or even peas

    Toss up between potato and kumura (sweet potato). Actually potato does grow year round in my climate, but it’s definitely tougher to get a good harvest in summer heat/dry.

    Sweet potatoes because i can eat the greens too

    What are we defining a veggie as? I’ll choose onions.

    I can’t believe I’m saying this bc I low-key don’t like potatoes that much, but I think if I’m trying to go off of just purely how many ways there are to cook it and how many different styles of food you can make from it, potato is going to be the move.

    Personally, this is why I studied foraging. Cattail rhizomes are extremely tasty and nutrient dense. I would spend my time on things that are more difficult to come by.

    Appear like I may be the only person who doesn’t like potato

    Hardest question I’ve ever been asked. Maybe peas but roasted Brussels sprouts are good too.
