Fuelling Expeditions

Did you know that hot chocolate is a staple on expeditions to the North and South Poles?

Explorers guzzle cup after cup of this filling and rejuvenating drink as a bulwark against the morale and strength-sapping task of trudging across the icy, austere landscape.

If you’re planning to carry bars of chocolate to the poles, you may want to break them into little pieces before the expedition to avoid having to bite through the rock-hard frozen blocks.
