Yo ho ho! Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day, lassies and lads! While the majority of Talk Like a Pirate Day festivities are fun, the day is also a somber reminder of a serious pirate issue: the scurvy.
To avoid the scurvy, take me advice today and eat yer dates! Here are 3 ways to up yer date intake:
- Score some chickpea, carrot and date tajine—the ultimate pirate's booty,
- While a scallywag walks the plank, take a moment to snack on some coconut-pistachio stuffed dates, and
- Mix date syrup into yer grog. It helps the rum go down easier.
Thanks for the somber yet adorable reminder! How could I have forgotten it was Talk Like a Pirate Day?
