The fact that you have to heat refrigerators in Antarctica is amusing me

As someone who spent 13.5 months in Antarctica.... "freshies" as we called them, were always very desireable. We did have a small greenhouse that produced enough greens for salad once a week. Never looked forward to salad so much in all my life.

It makes sense that Pizza would be so readily available and always fresh. Flour is VERY compressible, as is mozzarella cheese (ship it in whole logs and freeze it, keeps basically forever with little noticeable quality loss, same goes with pepperoni.

I’m glad I’m not the only person amazed at the amount of people and buildings and how large the station is there. All the other documentary shows make it seem like small groups and temp shelters. This is a huge base with full service canteen. Wow!
