Food & Diet
The expedition team's rations need to be light and compact whilst on sled. Whilst camping, the
meals are easy and quick to prepare in order to save fuel, and the ration packs themselves must
be well packed to avoid deterioration. The packs contain food for a balanced and varied diet
providing around 3500 kilocalories for each person daily.
The supplies consist principally of:
- Freeze-dried meat
- Several varieties of dried soup
- Dried vegetables
- Rice
- Tea
- Coffee
- Drinking chocolate
- Orange drink
- Biscuits
- Chocolate
- Butter
- Sugar
- Porridge
- Dried milk
- Multi-vitamin pills
- Extra chocolate...!
Water will be made by melting snow and the water purity is exceptional. Cooking will be done over
paraffin fired primus stoves, the most dependable and robust system.
