If money was not a consideration what is something you would regularly incorporate into your diet? For me it would be mahi mahi and scallops. I love the taste, it is high in protein and low in calories. It is a little too pricey to have daily though!

    Grass fed and finished beef - I've room for half a cow in my freezer...

    Lobster. More seafood really. It's pricey on the prairies.

    A greater variety of seafood
    More nuts
    Avocados. All. Year. Round.
    Better variety of berries
    I would eat my weight in nectarines every summer

    I would buy more local, grass-fed, free range, etc meat and eggs. I hate having to buy the marked down meat at the grocery store, but it's what I can afford, so it's what I get.

    Forgot about that. I would do that too!

    I discovered the local peach farm last year. Oh. My. God!

    If calories were no object I'd have peach pie and vanilla ice cream every day peaches were in season.

    Crab, every day! More seafood in general, actually. And passion fruit. Those things are delicious but so expensive here.

    I second the private home chef. I don't find any food to be out of my price range to eat regularly, but this also because I can't cook. If I could, bring on the Wagyu.

    Going with the personal chef myself

    Seafood every second or third day, perfectly prepared...especially lobster, scallops & ahi tuna.
    More sushi
    High quality macarons & special pastries
    Salad bar from a fancy supermarket all the time, instead of buying vegetables & prepping them myself.

    More meat.
    Seasonings and ingredients I can't find locally. I like cooking and it would be fun to try some new things.

    If money was no object I'd also have a kitchen renovation with all kinds of gadgets and equipment.

    Scallops
    Mussels
    Calves' liver
    Fresh berries year-round (I assume the money will extend to whatever measures are needed to alleviate our enlarged carbon footprints?)
    Avocados even when they aren't on sale
    Ducks' eggs
    Milk and other dairy from local pastured cows

    ETA: Since other people are hiring cooks or buying land and hiring farm workers, I would use this unlimited money to quit my job so I would always have enough time to cook what I wanted. :smile:
