A friends former roommate had a diet of daily rice+lentils, some strawberries and I think some veggies. Plus about 2-3 supplements. AFAIK, she hasn't changed her diet, ate like that for years and had regular checkups with bloodwork showing no nutritional deficiencies.
A nutritionally well balanced diet does not require materials shipped from all over the world, nor meat, or even milk. Historically, people had access to much, much less, and didn't even know as much about nutrition and supplements were not available. Some ate a lot of meat, in populous areas most ate much less meat, some ate no animal food, and most food was grown locally with very limited varieties available.
We are absolutely spoiled WRT with what food we can get by, and still spoiled even if a nutritiously full and complete diet is considered a requirement.
