Best Answer

All food consumed on the Antarctic continent is imported by the governments that support their research stations there.

Exceptions are hydroponic produce items, such as lettuce, tomatoes, spices and edible flowers, that are grown in some research stations. All food grown on the continent must be consumed on the continent, per the Antarctic Treaty.

NASA has studied the viability of hydroponic produce production in Antarctica for use on space travel.

All humans in Antarctica live and work there temporarily. They are either scientists or workers in support of science, all of whom study the health of planet earth.

Everything useful to humans is imported to the continent, and all human rubbish and waste that cannot be burned is exported to the country that supports the research station involved.
