Maybe you know about this, but Plumpy-nut is pretty interesting.

It's a ready-to-eat therapeutic food with an excellent shelf life. Aide workers give it out in famished areas.

Worth noting: keyword "therapeutic". Plumpynut is specifically addressing refeeding syndrome. It is not necessarily formulated for long term use.

That's correct. Food is the only suitable thing to eat in the long term.
