Birria de Res Tacos

In any quantity? Some nutritionally complete food that avoids as many allergens as possible. Probably some kind of fortified legume and veggie paste. With that kind of magical power, I'd be looking to slay one of the horsemen of the apocalypse

Prison escape cake, with a metal file, skeleton key and a knife baked inside.

[–] solarvector@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 10 hours ago

Assuming cooked includes "prepared": sushi boat with a variety of rolls!

Plenty to eat, good protein, and it's something I can't prepare for myself. Also assuming magic, won't contribute to ocean decline.

Two slices of cottage bread, lightly buttered on the inside with quality unsalted butter, two pieces of deli style American cheese (specifically the stuff from our local butcher but similar to Kraft Deli Select) evenly distributed in the middle.

Delicious cheese sandwich!

[–] teolan@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

Some form of vegetarian chili.

Delicious, desireable in all seasons, relatively healthy.

I wonder if the people asking for fast-food type of stuff just want to die.

Chicken tortellini soup. Everyone in the house likes it so everyone could just have a nice bowl whenever!

[–] Ceedoestrees@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago

I love how wholesome your wish is.

Sliced BBQ Porkbelly in tonkotsu broth with ramen noodles, soft-medium boiled egg, green onion, bok choy, shredded carrots, corn, and enoki mushrooms served with a bottle of chilled, sweet, filtered sake.

Cheeseburger

Roast chicken & french fries

[–] truite@jlai.lu 8 points 16 hours ago

Boiled little cubes of zucchini. No spice, no salt, nothing. It's for my cat, I have to do this all year round and it's annoying.

[–] SLVRDRGN@lemmy.world 11 points 18 hours ago

Perfect bowl of Pho

[–] cattywampas@midwest.social 7 points 17 hours ago

A nice crusty loaf of bread.

Fresh bread is so good, doesn't stay good that long, and has a very long lead time.

[–] Monument@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 16 hours ago

Freshly made, slightly warm hummus, with veggies and taboon-style pita bread.

It would be lovely to have something like steak or chicken or a tasty cheesy dish, but I would just wind up in an early grave I went with that.

[–] notaviking@lemmy.world 18 points 21 hours ago

A nice hearty soup. Can basically travel the world because it can feed you and hydrate you when you cannot find water or sustenance. And I think it is healthy enough to not kill you if you survived on it for the last 3 months, might be wrong.

But most importantly it will not take away your pleasure of better food, such as pizza, which after three months only eating pizza, you will be tired of it for the rest of you life

Dozen raw oysters.

12oz aged Sirloin, very rare(not blue), with truffle butter topping.

Sides: garlic heavy creamed spinach, lobster Parmesan risotto, and lightly crisp grilled Brussels sprouts.

Large bottle of Riesling.

Rotating choices of dessert.

Ohhh dear god I should not have read this while this hungry

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

How do you think I feel... I dream about it all the time.

[–] Kn1ghtDigital@lemmy.zip 7 points 18 hours ago

Pizza. Appropriate at any time, can survive off it's varieties and makes you ALWAYS the one invited to parties.

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I'm going to agree with bread. I do make bread but if it could just stay first day fresh (or second day fresh for sourdough rye) from first slice to last, that would be great.

[–] dumples@midwest.social 3 points 16 hours ago

There are some fresh baked breads that I enjoy a few days after baking (basically sourdoughs) that are reheated to get warm and crispy again. But I agree. If I could have perfectly timed baked breads I would be so happy.

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 3 points 16 hours ago

The off-brand KFC run by people who barely speak English. Sometimes it's food poisoning but usually its the best chicken I've ever tasted.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 4 points 17 hours ago

Pizza or Lasagna. I could never get tired of either.

[–] HatchetHaro@pawb.social 4 points 18 hours ago

Döner. I got addicted to one store's döner while I was in Berlin and I've been craving it ever since, and I've been unable to find an equivalent here.

[–] memfree@piefed.social 7 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Antipasto or charcuterie with grilled veg, crostini or other bread, cheese and maybe some meat (salami or such) -- but particularly grilled asparagus. Something like this: spring

summer

fall

Perfect steak. Could use it in so many things, besides eating it by itself, and it'd save me so much and majorly upgrade my meals.

Bbq brisket. I’m not going to go through the whole process of smoking for several hours.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago

Imagine unlimited burnt ends. Mmmmmm...
