Dear MEL
Topic Readers,
Could you
survive just on one food?
If there were
only one food to eat, what would be your choice? Meat, bread, rice, bananas or yogurt?
While no one food seems to have everything needed to make a human live for a
long time, there seem to be better ones than others.
Lions eat
just meat. So why not humans? It doesn’t seem to work because meat lacks
vitamins and fiber.
What about vegetables
and fruits? There are a lot of vegetarians in the world. But you still need to
take protein and fat that aren’t contained enough in bananas or broccolis.
Whether you
like or not, potatoes are found to be more balanced nutrition than any other
single food.
Time to make
another call to Mark Watney, the botanist left on Mars, to find what it’s like
to eat just potatoes in every meal for days.
Enjoy reading
and thinking what it’s like to have only one item on your plate.
