Arrr - but they're sooo cute!Originally posted by Pondlife View PostI'm off to Peru very soon and will definitely be partaking of "cui".

My daughter Googled guinea pig pictures once and the first one that came up was a guinea pig roasted with a salad! I was quick off the mark, and got rid of it - but poor Pogle jnr was a tad upset. However it did then lead us into a debate about eating animals/meat and how different cultures do different things - so it wasn't all bad.I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
