18th-century sailors with scurvy: this healed me
What it means

A tweet-style meme shows orange slices with the caption “18th-century sailors with scurvy:” followed by “this healed me.” The joke refers to sailors historically suffering from scurvy due to vitamin C deficiency and humorously imagines oranges instantly curing them.
