Like if you, yourself, were a remote island in the middle of the ocean. You would presumably have your own ecosystem. You'd have your own lakes, rivers, animals, plants... everything. <br><br>So the question is, what would you eat? Now, let's assume you're like a magic island so you can just grow plants in the sky with magic or whatever. The reality of the island's ecosystem is not the point. The point is what you would eat, as if you were that island. <br><br>You could grow people and eat them, but you don't want to do that. That would be moral. You wouldn't do that. You'll be an island that grows everyone's favorite foods in abundance, and you'll grow water purification plants, and solar panels, and air and water pollution filters, and everything else that would make the world a better place. <br><br>So, what would you eat? You'd still have to eat something, as an island. Otherwise, you'd just be dead. So, what would you eat?
