What was a wooden age sailor's food like?

Hey all! I saw his article a while back and it came around again on Facebook so I thought I would share it with you. These guys made some food according to period recipes to see what would happen. They even handled the food like it would have been handled in the late 1600's and early 1700's: you know, no hand-washing, etc.They even have a picture of a barrel of salted meat. (Ew!)

Read and enjoy:

What would real ship's food have been like?
