Why are most foods and beverages mixtures?

Most foods, as they occur in nature, are already a compounded materials. The carrot for example is a combination of carbohydrates, sugar, fiber, beta-carotene, etc. Each of those is a group of molecules that are in turn made of several different atoms. There is no logical reason to make a food that is simply a block of protein with no fat or carbohydrates since the human body cannot survive on any one material alone.
