Mrs. Forsythe
A pirate’s diet in the 1700s was far less glamorous than the swashbuckling feasts imagined in popular culture. Despite the romanticized image of Caribbean pirates, their actual meals were quite grim and practical, dictated by the harsh realities of sea life. Pirates mostly consumed non-perishables, like hardtack (a dry, long-lasting biscuit) and salted meats, which were necessary for long voyages but far from appetizing. They frequently consumed sea turtles and kept livestock like chickens and goats on board for eggs, milk and meat.
But no worries, we got a way more nutritious and tasty meal for you today.
