Not in the Usual Job Description

During oceanographic research cruises, it is customary for scientists to cook for the crew. Midway through this summer’s expedition to the Gakkel Ridge, chief scientist Rob Reves-Sohn found himself in the galley of the icebreaker Oden concocting a south-of-the-border dinner for a hungry crew north of the Arctic Circle fish tacos with guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, taco sauce, jalapeño peppers, rice, and refried beans.
