If you could satisfy your daily nutrition and caloric needs with one food in particular, what food would you happily eat for the rest of your life?

Think of it as "people kibble". Without shame, I would eat Cheetos as my solitary food item for the rest of my life (CRUNCHY, not puffs)
Pizza
Potatoes. I can make it into whatever I want and it has never disappointed me to date.
Taters? What's taters, precious?
Potato and dairy can get you suprisingly close. Nutrition is complex and full of unknowns, and like don’t actually do that, but it’s nutritionally not far off on paper.
Water
Based 🚰
If I can't vary the recipe (it needs to be the exact same every time), I'd probably live off something inoffensive and bland. Like polenta with fried eggs.
If there's some room for variation however it got to be stew. It's still a stew if I sub potatoes with taro. It's still a stew if I sub the beef with chicken or fish. It's still a stew if I change the seasoning. You get the idea, right?
Would probably go for something very practical. Water would be ideal, as I could get it pretty much anywhere for free or very cheap. Or maybe I'd go for chicken pasta salad, just to have a meal that contains a decent amount of variation.
egg fried rice, I already went about 3 months on just two portions of it per day about a year ago and honestly if you add veg and a bit of meat it's pretty close to giving you everything you need anyway (apart from calories cause I was only getting a little over 1k a day including other snacks).
Chicken fried steak
Chicken fried steak? How'd he manage that, then?
Ha!
If you aren't American and haven't tried it, give it a shot! It's so good.

Funnel Cake, or most other types of deep fat fried dough with sugar.
Omlette du fromage, probably. Although nothing tastes good for eternity.
"Say it again, Dexter"
Excellent choice.
pho
Steaks. Yum.
Fried chicken all day every day. Mac and cheese if I get a side!
Fajitas or Mexican food in general. So flavorful and just hits a certain way.
Cheese Enchiladas
Tacos.
Sushi for sure- especially anything salmon.
A toasted bagel with salted butter and whole earth peanut butter. I already eat it for a third of my meals.
Batchlorchow
Sushi. Definitely sushi.
Sticky toffee pudding
Hard fried jumbo shrimp 😋
Ramen
Yakisoba. I could eat this everyday for every meal and never get tired of it. I love it.
Though good luck trying to make it balanced from a nutritional point of view. Waaaay too many oils.
Potatoes and cheese, doesn't get much better for me
Burgers
Curry I'm hungry now, you did this to me...
Beignets. Or mac and cheese. It's a conundrum.
