Freekeh... It's even better than quinoa health-wise.
It's a wheat grain but has 14 grams of protein and a lot of fiber... Plus b vitamins, zinc, iron and a bunch of other stuff!
But then again not ok for celiac. So even this superfood is not a superfood for everyone.

And there is no one food except Manna or soylent green as other posters pointed out that is perfect. You need a combination of foods to be ideal.

My vote is anything that's in it's natural form is healthiest. Meaning, not processed.

Fresh fruits, veggies, grains, etc

OP, can you please clarify your question? There is no such thing as the one healthiest food, because we all need a rounded diet that has protein, carbs, vitamins, minerals, and fat. As others have said, look to manna.

In the meantime, what are your criteria for a food being the healthiest?

With potatoes, keep in mind that most of the nutrients are in the peel. So there is a big difference between mashed potatoes and stuffed potato skins.

You don't need a desert island. This experiment already happened. Irish peasants (until the famine) lived very well on a mostly potato diet and the population exploded (since you only need a small plot of land to grow a lot of potatoes.) They were supposedly the healthiest peasants in Europe. (healthy enough to bear lots of children and sustain them) The potato diet was supplemented by small amounts of meat and dairy and other foods. (you do need some vitamins from other foods)
