Eating Challenge

Okay, so I said that I’d do the ‘BBC’s 50 things to eat before you die’ challenge, and believe me I started writing it all out. As i went through them I thought it was way too easy! Anyone in this world who hasn’t eaten pizza, pasta and ice cream in their life is either living in a cave or grew up WAY too quickly. But I kept going because hey, an easy thing off my forever growing list right? Then I came across moreton bay bugs…okay I can eat bugs…Alligator? Okay, i guess that i’d be hard to find but it’s just like any other meat right??….Kangaroo? Okay, it makes me feel slightly queasy thinking of that but i’ll do it i guess….and then it came up, i’m NOT joking: Guinea Pig. GUINEA PIG! Are they insane! Why don’t they just feed me dog or rabbit while I season it with tears of pets past? Okay i know it’s just another meat but can you serious eat this?:

*Shudders* The horror. I just don’t see how reindeer and sharks can rest beside Sushi and Paella in the normal order of things… So I took some time looking for another list *Don’t boo me!* and I think I’ve found one that’s actually MORE challenging and would be MORE fun to do. Now these actually sound delious and more like a meal than a slab of meat: http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/food/50-things-to-eat-before-you-die-2217612/

So that’s the one I’m sticking with, I refuse to eat guinea pigs.
