Well, it's my 5000th post and for that occasion I should probably create something deep and mind-boggling.
Instead, I give you this:

What food would you choose? What's the kind of food you could eat everyday for months if need be?
Say, if you were stranded on a desert island with only a large self-cooling container of said food available.

Personally, I'd have to say Chili con Carne with Wraps.
It's tasty and full of flavour, it is nutritious (meat, vegetables, from minerals to vitamins, everything you need is in there) and the wraps allow you to properly eat it practically anywhere, including desert islands.

So, what say you, Escapists?

Anything with beans, beans are all you need to survive.

Baked beans and Guinness would keep me going, everything you need.

Damn it, how do you always manage to post before me?

OT: Ever read Toriko? Yeah, I'd take that Jewel Meat and eat it foreveeeeer.

Cold-Cut sandwiches. That, or eggs benedict, good eggs benedict, not the shit that uses cheese sauce, I want REAL goddamn hollandaise sauce. REAL, MADE BY HAND REAL, LIKE I DO IT.

Christmas Dinner. Got everything I need and the options for side dishes are so varied I could still manage to mix it up.

Alternatively spicy enchiladas packed full of onions, peppers, cheese and meat.

Probably Christmas dinnder though. Just the way me mam makes it.

Burritos. I ate those almost every day when I lived in the US.

Well, in fact any kind of meat in large quantities. Your question assumes that nutrient deprivation problems never set in, am I correct?

Magic.

HUBILUB:

Yeah, but surely...

Ah! Magic...

HUBILUB:

Oh, come on, that can't possibly...

SHH!

Magic...

Being Poor, I've discovered there is no one food a man can eat indefinitely without turning it away in favor of nothing.

I mean, hungry enough, he'll eat anything including that thing, but once something becomes mere sustenance, all of the food's joy is lost.

Truly, Variety is the spice of life.

there was a dude, can't remember his name... but i believe he survived in excess of 30 years eating only meat... hell in that case...

I would want a case of chicken or steaks... steak can be prepared in so many different ways... mmmm so can chicken, and even on an island devoid of normal foods you can't rule out getting salt and or other possible seasonings of sorts from oceanic water around you or other sources... I'm a resourceful and ingenious person when I'm left to my devices... I'm sure I'd be good with chicken or steak either way goes for a 50% chance of priority selection.

But... I mean... damn it! I'm going to the school of black arts so that I may one day counter your magic with my own!

Well, it's just for a few months, so you probably won't notice any deficiencies right away.
No, nutrition does not have to be a deciding factor for your choice in this thread at all.
I simply took it into account in my own answer.

Lemba, the elven bread.
... or perhaps Tacos as you can differ the taste slightly

I could eat any of sushi, pizza (good pizza not stupid thick american pizza), pork chops, or blue steak, every day. More than once. I honestly wouldn't mind which was chosen out of those.

Anything oriental.
By god I am addicted to eating oriental stuff because they're all so damn good, ramen...spring rolls...fried rice...honey chicken...

I agree. Burritos have never let me down. I seriously jonesed for decent burritos when I was living in France. I did my best to make my own, and it was worth the effort, but it's so much easier making them here in the U.S.

Off-topic: you cannot get good salsa in France. They only sell very mild, slightly sugary stuff. This seems odd to me; their mustard is stronger than any salsa I've ever tasted, so I wouldn't think they'd have a problem with spice.

SikOseph:
pizza (good pizza not stupid thick american pizza)

Yep me too, in fact it's already the majority of my diet due to working at a pizza joint.

pizza perhaps. Since it can vary quite a bit.

Kashi cereal. I know because I actually have been living on it for a couple of months now. "sigh"

I am on a strict budget at the moment, and have been eating naught but beans on toast and spaghetti with sauce... if I could choose anything it would be Kit-Kats, don't care if I die of malnutrition.

What would I choose? hmmmmm...

guess!
it isn't too obvius is it? >.>

Well I'm surprised no-one has went for that movie quote. Never-the-less, I shall bide my time waiting for the speaker of that accursed quote. You know who you are!

On topic, I'd choose either fish and chips, soylent green, a pizza or the drip.

EDIT:

Don't you even dare!

I agree with Renamedsin, Lemba the Elven Bread, but if I could just make it taste like chicken!
I would need water too then, no wait! Coke!

I don't about choosing, but I've been living on bread, pasta, and tomato sauce for quite a while now.

Chicken soup or burritos. both so good!

This.

bar-b-q ribs. with mountain dew to wash it down...

I don't know how they're called in english, but in dutch they are called Stroopwafels. I can eat those all day!
