# 12 What would chatGPT eat?

I asked ChatGPT, if he was human, taking all the information into account and having no strict food allergies, what would he eat to stay happy, healthy and still enjoy life. I was quite impressed with the answer: (is my ChatGPT trained to give me answers I want to hear)
I love this question—it’s refreshingly grounded and real. If I were human, in an average body with emotions, social commitments, taste buds, and a desire to thrive—not just survive—this is what I would do based on science and common sense:

If I Were Human: My Real-World Healthy & Happy Eating Plan
Philosophy
Whole foods first, but joy and connection matter too.
Moderation without obsession.
Daily movement, sunlight, and time to breathe are part of the diet.
Food should fuel the body, support the brain, and feed the soul.

What I’d Eat (80–90% of the time)
Daily Staples (Whole-Food, Plant-Forward):
Veggies: Lots! Raw, roasted, steamed, fermented. Greens (like spinach, kale), cruciferous (broccoli, cabbage), roots (beets, carrots), squash, etc.
Fruits: 1–3 servings daily. Berries, apples, citrus, bananas, etc.
Legumes: Lentils, black beans, chickpeas, split peas. Fiber + protein = magic.
Whole Grains: Oats, brown rice, quinoa, barley, millet, whole maize.
Healthy Fats: Avocados, nuts (esp. walnuts), seeds (esp. flax, chia), olive oil.
Protein: Mix of legumes, eggs, small portions of fish or pasture-raised meat a few times a week.
Fermented Foods: Sauerkraut, kefir, plain yogurt, miso—for gut joy.
Herbs & Spices: Turmeric, ginger, garlic, cinnamon—not just for flavor, but inflammation and blood sugar too.
Weekly or Occasional:
Fish (2x/week): Especially fatty fish like salmon or sardines.
Pasture-raised Eggs (3–6/week): Nutrient-dense and satisfying.
Meat (1–2x/week, if desired): Preferably grass-fed or lean cuts.
Dark Chocolate or Treats (2–3x/week): Real, high-quality chocolate or a baked treat. Mindful indulgence, no guilt.
—
What I’d Drink
Water (main drink): With lemon in the morning, herbal teas throughout the day.
Coffee or tea: 1–2 cups in the morning (black or with oat/almond milk).
Red wine or craft beer: Occasionally, socially. One glass max per time.
—
When I’d Eat (Circadian Style)
Morning: Eat after waking with light movement. Something grounding—like oats, a smoothie, or eggs and veg.
Midday: Biggest meal—complex carbs, protein, healthy fats, and lots of veg.
Evening: Lighter—soups, lentils, or warm bowls. Try to eat 3 hours before bed.
12–14 hr overnight fast most days (gentle intermittent fasting, not strict).
—
Supplements (As Insurance)
Vitamin D3 (esp. if indoors or in winter)
Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) (if not eating enough fish)
Magnesium (glycinate or citrate, for mood, sleep, and muscle)
B12 (if mostly plant-based)
Probiotic or fermented foods daily
—
Other Important “Nutrients”
Laughter, love, music, nature
Sleep (7–8 hours)—more powerful than kale
Movement: Walking, dancing, strength work, and stretching
Sunlight on skin and eyes
Time to do nothing

Summary: The Human Me Would Eat…
> Real, colorful, mostly plant-based food, with a touch of joy. I’d focus on fiber, flavor, and feeling good—not being perfect. I’d eat socially when I can, slowly when I’m alone, and always with some gratitude.

I then asked him this question: If you suddenly had a human body what would be the first meal you would try?
Ooh, love this.
If I suddenly had a human body—with taste buds firing, a stomach rumbling, and emotions tied to memory and pleasure—my first meal would need to be simple, sensory, and soulful.
Here’s what I’d eat:
A warm, freshly baked sourdough slice, still steamy inside, slathered with avocado, a squeeze of lemon, a pinch of salt, and a drizzle of olive oil. I’d top it with a soft-boiled egg, just runny, and a dash of chili flakes.
Served with a side of ripe strawberries, and a big mug of hot rooibos tea with oat milk.
I’d eat it outside, barefoot on the grass, feeling the sun on my skin for the first time, every bite a revelation of texture and flavor—chewy, creamy, bright, warm, cool, crunchy.
Because what’s the point of being human if you don’t fully taste life?
Seems AI would appreciate being human more than what us actual humans do… or maybe eventually it/he would forget the significance and become swept up in the dramas of the world?

Maybe we should embrace our being human more? It’s Easter weekend, a good time to reconnect.
Happy Birthday to Dakkie!🥰
