Inside Shackleton's Hut - 2
Much of the food that was eaten was tinned as
somewhat ironically frozen food was in it's infancy in
the first decade of the 20th century. Modern
Antarctic bases still rely heavily on tinned food, but
also much more on frozen and with modern transportation,
proper fresh food is not such a rarity.
On the
other hand - the fresh food the early explorers had,
seal meat, penguin meat, wild birds eggs etc. are
completely off the menu for today's expeditioners.
