        People like to eat a variety of food. Not just lentils and squash all the time. Maybe you’re fine with a boring palate. Most people like more than two or three flavors, some of them even sweet.

        But I guess poor people don’t deserve that. Lentils for them every meal.

          This assumes a number of things. One, that my one example is something that people should be eating all the time. Two that the ingredients i listed can only be prepared in a boring way. I’m sorry you lack the imagination or even an Indian cookbook.

            How many ways do you think those four things can be prepared without any other ingredients or even spices?

              Any other weird limitations you’d like to add to this weird scenario?

                What limitations? You only listed those things.
