Guinea Pig

I wish this picture was better, but it's the only evidence I have of my meal of fried guinea pig. I had it this summer while visiting peru with my two sister. If you look closely, you can see his head between my fingers. I'm about to bite into his skull and get an eyeball.

A quick google image search pulled up this image that it pretty much exacty what I ate. It looks like an entire guinea pig was skinned and then thrown into a deep frier. It comes out still with it's head, eyes, claws, teeth.

Guinea pig should not be eaten. There's not much meat on it, and what you can pull off is gamey, dark, tough, and salt. I'm glad I tried it, but I won't have it again. Not that I could find it within 3000 miles if I DID want it....
