Give everyone on earth one chicken.
75% of the people decide that chicken would taste great. So they roast their chickens, have one excellent meal, then are hungry again tomorrow.
24% of the people realize their chicken is an egg factory, so they enjoy one egg every day for a few years until the chicken dies.
1% of the people figure out that if they mate their chicken with a rooster they can raise a whole bunch of chickens. In a few years they will have more fresh eggs and chickens than they could eat.
So as a one time reset you haven't changed a thing. Everything is exactly as it was.
