I have a non-boating friend who's going on a cruise next
week. He's concerned about seasickness. I told him ginger is
a good cure. I bought him a box of Ginger Snaps ( more for a
joke ). Should he start munching on these before he steps
onboard or wait till / if he feels bad?

Are ginger snaps actually flavored with ginger, or an artificial
flavoring?

We keep candied ginger on board for folks who suffer mal-de-mer.

Just *how* could anyone suffer from mal-de-mer on a LAKE?????
