If you were trapped on a deserted isle....

Actually Logic dictates that none of the above would last long on a Deserted Island so the important thing to consider is what "Fruit" or "Vegetable" is abundant on that Island and take along a few good recipies for that..

I found this and thought it was interesting.

In the diet of Europe and Asia, only one nightshade food was eaten until recent times: the aubergine or eggplant. Other nightshades such as henbane, thorn apple (datura stramonium), belladonna and mandrake were well known but their use was restricted to specific medical applications (sedative, anesthetic or poison) or in witchcraft.

Then, in the 1600s and 1700s food and drug crops based on nightshades were imported from the Americas and for the past 400 years have penetrated and become ubiquitous in the Western diet. These include tobacco, tomatoes, potatoes and chili peppers. It is not surprising that these novel foods, being nightshades, were regarded with suspicion at first and were slow to take hold in the European diet. They all contain nicotine in some form, although it may be named solanine (potatoes), tomatine (tomatoes), alpha-solanine (aubergine) or solanadine (chillies and capsicums).

It is now apparent that there are groups of people who cannot tolerate nightshades in their diets, wish to avoid them anyway or find that eliminating them helps alleviate a variety of mental, emotional and physical problems. The following groups of people avoid nightshades.

People with arthritis - Some researchers believe that arthritis is misdiagnosed in people who are in fact just suffering joint aches and swelling arising from consumption of nightshades. One in three arthritics react badly to nightshades. These individuals frequently have a sensitivity to the solanine chemicals present in these foods. It can take up to six months of exclusion of nightshades from the diet to achieve a beneficial effect.
Macrobiotics - since the 1960s, the macrobiotic diet has recommended avoidance of all nightshades. This proven diet for health and longevity is followed by celebrities such as Sadie Frost, Gwyneth Paltrow, Chris Martin of Coldplay and Madonna.
Children with eczema - for some children the elimination of nightshades from the diet helps clear eczema, particularly around the mouth.
Gastro Esophogal Reflux disease - consumption of nightshade vegetables, particularly tomatoes, can causes a reaction where the stomach contents are pushed back up the esophagus towards the throat with symptoms of heartburn, chest pain, choking while lying down and asthma symptoms when sleeping.
Those quitting smoking - some programmes to help people give up cigarettes also recommend giving up nightshade foods in order to completely eliminate low level nicotine intake and consequent re-addiction.
Blood group diet - Dr. Peter d'Adamo's Blood Type Diet recommends people of blood types A and B to avoid all nightshade foods. This represents about half the population of most European countries.
Cystitis, lupus, psoriasis - giving up nightshades can help relieve symptoms of cystitis, lupus and psoriasis.

Also speaking of cyanide peach pits also have cyanide in them.

-Wakes from nap quickly puts on stevie and rocks out.... stops hallucinating long enough to realise he is rocking out to stevie nicks and goes back to sleep-

haha funny

I know a kid who nearly lost an eye from one though. Some bratty little girl threw it at him after he took her cabbage patch doll and spat on its face. He grew up to be a complete asshole though, so it's well deserved. I -- eh the girl -- had no regrets.

Oh, and in answer to the original subject : Peyote definitely.

Well if its just me drop me off with a gallon of tequilla soI can end my life properly,, it's made with green plant like things so it counts

It's a grain, but I'd take full-grain brown rice. It has every major nutrient and even a supple amount of proteins and carbs. Grains are afterall, the pillar of every vegetarian and omnivorous diet.

And also of note; many monestary bhuddist monks live completely on a diet of brown rice and green tea. 3 times a day. And they live to get really old and strong somehow...

Now if I get to be stranded with a woman and a vegitable then I would hope it's lash and a gallon of tequilla.....that way I can con her out of her clothes real fast under the auspices of writing help in the sand with her clothes.....I know I know....thats why I need the tequilla

This would be accomplished much quicker with longer lasting results with aforementioned peyote.

..and loud screaming and moaning would be required to draw attention too!!
