It's a pun mate (a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words which sound alike but have different meanings).
Check it out: 👉 "Pie Rates (sounds like "Pirates") so, "Pie-rates (Pirates) of the Carribean" lol 😂
Obviously, got to say 'Pie' and 'Rates' fairly quickly in succession to effectively create the impression that it's Jack Sparrow *slash* (/) Captain Hook type Pirates ☠️ and not Greggs' baked meat and veg baked a baked dish of fruit, or meat and vegetables, typically with a top and base of pastry dish menu prices.
I suppose it could be argued that Old Git has employed some creative licence as nobody really taks about Pie Rates unless they are on about Pie Ratings and you don't necessarily hear about Pie Ratings all that often unless you are a Pie Tester, it's normally 'Cost of Pies' or 'Pie Prices' but 'Cost of Pies of the Carribean' or 'Price of Pies of the Carribean' doesn't really allude to Pirates so the whole thing becomes confusing and nobody wants that especially Pirates.
Unless they do.
