Hypothetical-- you can only choose two cuisines to eat for the rest of your life. What might they be?

Lean
Huh! And what is that, if I may ask..?
EDIT: Will you clowns give it a rest for JUST a moment, here...?

A not serious option.

For me it's Indian food, but then... what else? Ugh... what a question.
Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like... ffff, like tasting heaven.
I mean, I've never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it's a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)
Indian and Thai, but I'd really miss pho.
That being said, no way I don't grill some steaks and burgers and brats..

Mexican and Italian. Both have very rich regional traditions with a ton of variety. Of course, Mexican food is a blend of Native American and European traditions, and Italian food (often) depends heavily on New World crops like tomatoes and corn, so these strict delineations are not real

It's so curious-- so what was late-stage Western Roman food like, anyway?

- French, can't miss with those standards

My problem with picking a cuisine is what that means.
It has become a gripe amongst Italian-Americans where I live that their cuisine isn't considered to be Italian because Italy has changed in a different direction from their traditional cooking. The Italian-Americans can trace some recipes and practices to those who just got off the boat, but those practices don't reflect modern Italian cuisine.
I'd probably pick Italian as one of my cuisines, but I don't know if my practices would match the current cooking practices from the nation-state of Italy.

For my mouth and dopamine, Italian.
For my health, Greek.Eh, but why GREEK..?

I can only assume they just drank gallons of garam!
In all seriousness though, we have a very dedicated restaurant near us run by a couple from the Verona area in far-northern Italy, and they use no tomatoes or corn. Pretty much every dish they make would've been possible pre-Columbus. This includes many styles of pasta, sauces based in olive oil or butter, and other things like beef, shrimp, mushrooms, pistachios, peas, and a variety of cheeses.

It’s strange that French food has high standards when they’re French.

I try to eat mostly vegetarian at home, and Indian recipes are my go-to for that. Indian food is the best tasting vegetarian food in my opinion. I was tempted to put Chinese here because I make tofu stir fry somewhat frequently, but I go with Indian recipes more often.
Mexican for the second choice because that gives you huevos rancheros, Mexican rice and beans, and homemade corn tortilla chips with guacamole. And breakfast burritos from the place down the street from me.

If I didn't have dietary restrictions the Vietnamese and Puerto Rican (with Mexican essentially tied).

Um... you mean the Carnivore's Cone of Delight, endlessly rotating in front of you like a car in a showroom?

Mexican and Chinese.
But like the american type chinese takeout with a seventeen page menu of sushi and bubble teas I will never once get. And the mexican restaurants that also serve americanized tacos, so you know everything else has extra cheese and sauce.
