Energetic Explorers
The first challenge in the Summer Learning Journey is : Explorers and how they found new Zealand. We have list 10 foods the Explorers would take with them and explain why we chose them. I·─f I were to sail the pacific ocean I would take :
Coconuts, because they are a reliable source of food and liquid, but they take about one year to grow and they weigh about 1.44 kg.
Bananas, because are an amazing source of potassium and can last along time because of their fruity outsides, they are also a great source of energy to keep the Explorers energized for along time.
Peanuts, Nuts have tons of protein and are one of the food the average person should eat everyday unless you have an allergy then don't eat them.
Apricots, Apricots are one of the many food that contain Iron, they can also taste delicious.
Fish, Fish is among the healthiest things on this world it's full of with vitamin D and protein and did you know that fish is a great source of omega 3 fatty acid which is important for your body and brain.
Honey, Honey can prevent cancer and heart disease, reduce ulcers, ease digestive problems and much more.
Onions,onions contain fiber and folic acid, a B vitamin that helps the body make new cells and they last along time!.
Rice, Rice lasts along time and has iron and B vitamins like folic acid, niacin, thiamine in it.
Green Vegetables, Green Vegetables have tons of iron in them, they are the best vegetable.
Soft Grains, Last a long time up to 8 years if sealed properly.

Kia ora Jasper, this is Kieryn from the Summer Learning Journey.
ReplyDeleteWell done for participating in the Summer Learning Journey and creating this blog post about 10 food items you would take with you if you were going on a sea voyage with no refrigerator or freezer!
I really like how you have thought about the aspect of no fridge or freezer.
Peanuts, honey, rice and soft grains are all excellent choices as they are non-perishable items and will therefore last a long time.
It is awesome to see some fruits and vegetables on you list! You definitely wouldn’t want to get scurvy while you were away at sea, so the vitamins and minerals in these would help avoid this!
I am not sure how well fish would last for three weeks without refrigeration. It might become a bit stinky! Would you be planning on catching it while you were at sea, or would you be bringing it with you from home?
Out of all of the different foods on your list, which one is your favourite?
What kind of meals would you make out of these ingredients?
If I were going on this sea voyage, I would pack peanut butter. This is because I eat peanut butter every morning, and don’t think I could go a day without it! Plus, peanut butter is full of good, healthy fats and lasts a while before expiring.
Keep up the excellent work!
