A long time ago, when DAR was young, a nice Canadian person was caught in the terrible storms that knocked out electricity and heat. This brave woman took the opportunity to clean out her freezer and found a large ice object that looked like a suckling pig. She carried the pig out into the snow and placed it by her mailbox. (I forget why, or maybe I just made that fact up.) When the snows melted, and she went out to see the pig, it turned out to be a large bag of peas.

This gave rise to one of my favorite DAR parties, the Bring the Oldest Item in Your Freezer buffet. I seem to remember someone having an item handed down through generations, like an heirloom. The event turned into quite a sentimental journey for some of us.

Howevever, the story of the anthropomorphic PeaPig was not told randomly.

It teaches us that vegetarian pirates need not be barred from the barbacoa table. We just need to be a little more creative in our entrée selections. In the spirit of the Thanksgiving tofu turkey, we must design small realistic animal parts from vegetables and fruits, adding eyes and toenails and whatever else adds to the verité of the production. Maybe with a little tomato juice blood to run out during barbacoaing

That reminds me--
While we eating breakfast outside in California Sat morning, Ammo said, Watch this.
He had a hand over his eye, and he stabbed his eye with a fork and all this icky white stuff spurted out.
He'd had one of those plastic creamer thingies hidden in the hand over his eye.
It was very gross, especially that early in the morning.
He was pleased, and did it several times for our viewing and gagging pleasure until his father took the fork away.
He said he saw it on a magic show program.

<<What about the vegetarian pirates such as myself? >>

In the days when pirates were eating people darn few of them were vegetarians. I doubt the term existed.
