For real, steak.

Its the ultimate elimination diet

Beef is very nutrient dense and contains all the nutrients a human needs

The carnivore diet is a thing, and it is just: beef, water and salt.

Most people who do this, do branch out after a while and add eggs, fish, liver etc

As long as you're okay with being the least climate-friendly and probably having cancer by the age of 50. People need fibre.

You might want to have an orange now and then.

Sprinkle a bit of lemon juice over the steak.

I'd be worried about purines. A diet of pure steak would likely lead to an insane case of gout, which is a buildup of uric acid crystals in your joints... which ranks pretty high on the list of excruciatingly painful things you can be diagnosed with.

If we are counting singular food items, surely haggis would be a better choice for mixed nutritional values. Both are probably lacking vitamin C though so I hope you like scurvy.
