Reason : It would be bad ass to eat shark all the time. Plus I could make tools out of it's teeth and weapons to fight off pirates if they try and take my infinite supply of shark. Vegetable : Carrot Reason : I have to keep my eye site good to spot pirates. Fruit : Raspberries Reason : They are so good I could eat them all day. Shellfish : Crab Reason : It's one of the only shellfish I really like. Starch: Potato Reason: They are good and you can make a lot of different things out of them. Plus you could stick shark teeth in them and throw them at the pirates. Nut: Pistachio Reason: Mildly annoying to open but when I make a system to open them easily(probably using shark teeth) it would be amazing. Herb and Spice: Garlic Reason: Why not? | ||

Reason : Cooked over a woodfire, it's absolutely delicious. Plus, they're a good size so you can do a lot with them. Vegetable : Garlic Reason : Makes any dish delicious. Fruit : Apples Reason : Gives you lots of energy, packed with nutrients, and are easy to carry around for those long days exploring pirate caves. Shellfish : Paua Reason : Just plain delicious Starch: Potatoes Reason: Great for filling out meals, or just eating on their own. Nut: Peanuts Reason: Lots of energy, can be used in cooking. Herb and Spice: Cayenne pepper and chives Reason: Can spice up mild dishes. | ||

I think I would go this route as well if I knew this to be true when I got there. What is the point in living that life? Wouldn't you go insane after a few decades of no humans or pets? Fish : Tuna Reason : Only fish I like, that I know of at any rate. Can also be sushi, since it would probably be problematic to light very many fires on an island so small it doesn't have animals. Vegetable : Onions Reason : Many variants and it can be eaten raw, it isn't as strong as garlic either. Fruit : Pineapple Reason : Can use the shell to store water in. Also the fruit I like the most, it is sweet so can be used as flavour along with salt from the water. Shellfish : Whatever Reason : I'm allergic to several variations, so don't know anything about them since I just skip the entire group. Starch: Sweet potato Reason: Can eat the greens for variation. Rice isn't that fun if you can't/don't want to cook. Nut: Whatever Reason: Allergy again. Herb and Spice: Chamomile and Allspice Reason: Health and tea has to be solved. | ||

Vegetable: Spinach. Can be eaten raw. Reasonable amount of nutrients for a vegetable. Fruit: Grapefruit. Can be eaten and turned into a marmalade. Shellfish: I'd pick shrimp, but, seriously, if you're stranded on an island, how the hell are you going to catch shrimp? So I guess I'll pick up whatever bivalves I can find and use their shells for dishes. Starch: Tapioca root because I don't have to grow it. Nut: Peanuts. George Washington Carver, the real OG. Herb and spice: Meadowsweet because you need antibiotics yo. If I'm just going to eat it, then I'll go for pepper. | ||

Reason: Vegetarian Vegetable: Beans Reason: If I can count them as vegetables Fruit: Pomegranate Reason: Refreshing and tasty and most importantly I never get sick of them Shellfish: N/A Reason: Vegetarian Starch: Taro Reason: Not super keen on potato and this fits the desert island theme ;D Also has edible leaves and stems Nut: Cashew Reason: Tasty and nutritional and also substantial Herb and Spice: Mint Reason: Could make up for a lack of desserts on the island, might make some mint tea or something, otherwise I'd replace this with Chili if it counts as a spice ;D | ||

Sorry to burst your bubble, but shark meat is for the most part toxic. The reason is because they release waste through their muscle. So basically their meat is filled with shark piss. Eating a little shark is okay (some say it's good for you, a la shark fin soup) but excess will kill u or at the very least cause extreme health issues. | ||

Reason : thousand different ways to cook and eat it. Vegetable : spinach Reason : tastes good especially when cooked with fish. Fruit : eggplant Reason : yeah i had this as my vegetable until i googled it. good and filling, tastes almost like meat to me. doesnt have a sweet or tarty taste like most fruits and lacks that refreshing factor but it's a good trade. Shellfish : crab Reason : cuz it is crab. i guess it would depend on if its those big alaskan crabs or the tiny ones you find under rocks at the beach. i'd go for the alaskan crab. Starch: wheat Reason: better than rice and definitely better than potato. i'd have nothing to do on the island so this also gives me a hobby as i can grow it to make flour then somehow bake cakes and shit underground. Nut: peanut Reason: can also be used for cooking. Herb and Spice: garlic and butter Reason: butter is a stretch but idc i need it if im stranded on an island. combine it with the tuna, spinach, and peanuts for one dish and then the crab for another dish. | ||

Reason : It's my favorite fish, good nutrition values and very tasty Vegetable : Tomato Reason : Fresh tomatoes of a twig is really good and they are versatile Fruit : Orange Reason : Tastes great, not tough for my stomach Shellfish : Some Crab? Reason : I hate shellfish so it's a guess Starch: Jerusalem artichoke Reason: It does not contain starch but I will use this category for root veggies. That's the best one, even better then potatoes Nut: Cashew Reason: Tastes the best of all nuts Herb and Spice: Garlic Reason: Really hard choice between thymus and garlic. Garlic so good | ||

Reason : This one is tough, salmon and shark are good contenders too. Vegetable : Bok choy Reason : Sure, it's slightly toxic, but it's just so good. Fruit : Peach Reason : "I could eat a peach for hours." - Castor Troy Shellfish : Shrimp Reason : Just the best one, soaks up flavor better than lobster too. Starch: Rice Reason: I don't love rice like I don't love the air that I breathe. Nut: Pistachios Reason: Wrecks my stomach, but whatever, a fine treat now and then. Herb and Spice: Black beans Reason: Fermentation into black bean sauce | ||
