Because people live in scientific stations, they would eat foods transported in from their native countries or the nearby country from which they embark onto the ice.
For example, at McMurdo Station, food stuffs included frozen meat, chicken, fish, and canned fruits and vegetables. Potatoes, milk, onions and flour were also shipped in. Condiments, cooking greases and oil and so forth that Navy chefs needed in their recipes.
Fresh food during the summer was shipped in from New Zealand and included fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs and cheeses.
The British station, Rothera, on the South America side of Antarctica ship in foodstuffs from England and from Argentina.
