It means - *one* of these.
Nuts beeing the densest (like a little meat with a lot of fat).
16lbs of vegetables sound impossible but might be achievable if
you're eating all day.
Mixing in some denser foods shrinks this considerably.
However a huge volume of the vegetables brings a lot of good
minerals vitamins and fiber with it.
Chances are we need a little more than just the most dense possible.
