When the pirate voyage starts, things start out great: Fresh meat, breads and cheeses. In the beginning, it’s yum yum time, but as the voyage continues, things change. Remember, pirates didn’t have refrigerators back in the day, and so they had to be creative…and that’s where the fun begins…for us anyway…because we don’t have to eat these things (unless we want to). As the voyage dragged out at sea, the food stores progressed to dried meats, pickled vegetables, and yes fowl.
