May need some advice for the Tampa Bay game. lol

What did Pirates eat and drink?

The first couple of weeks at sea was full of meat, cheese, fresh veggies, eggs, and you name it. After that the food slowly but surely started to spoil, rot, mold and go rancid. That’s why most of the food in storage was either dry beans, pickled food or salted food like salted meat. The quality and variety of the food was certainly found lacking after a few months at sea. Chickens were kept for the eggs until they were eaten or died. Cows were kept for the milk until the food supply for the cow had depleted. When the cow no longer had food to live, it was then time to eat the cow.
The meat was frequently rotten and it was very common to see maggots. The bread was full of weevils, even the hardtack sea biscuits which usually lasted for up to 12 months if kept dry. Pirates were known to catch a sea turtle here and there which was a welcomed meal. Bones from everything was kept to make Pirate Bone Soup for when the going got rough.
Galley cooks were known to use a lot of herbs and spices to cover up the taste of spoiled ingredients. Vegetables and meat were usually pickled or salted to preserve the food. Ships on long voyages relied on biscuits, dried beans and salted beef to live. Without proper food, many sailors got sick and died of scurvy.

Born and raised in Las Cruces (live in Phoenix now). I usually buy enough for the year and freeze it. Hot and Extra hot is what I buy, sack of each.

Damn, son. I can almost smell the Hatch roasting in a big drum on a Saturday morning. then a side trip to Jackalope in Santa Fe. Then some steaks at the foothills in East. Albq. I think 5Stars did the same, stocking up for the winter. I HATE YOU TWO MENS!!!!!;)
