Antarctica

We decided before the finale that we should eat from Antarctica as we had a big, white space left on our map. So we emailed the chief at Scott base, and asked if there was anything that was queintessential fodder for the Antarcticans. The reponse was anything that is Kiwi in origin, as they are all New Zealanders working down there. We had slow cooked lamb shanks with mashed potatoes, which were very nice...but when we told her this she said that they would never eat that down there! This is because they have to pay by weight to fly all their food in, and the bones are just wasted weight. Also, they have to fly all their rubblish out, so a whole lot of lamb shank bones would be very expensive! They would be more likely to eat lamb rumps or stir-fried meat. Isn't that interesting?
