a local delicacy

Koreans have dog and Peruvians have “cuy”, or to us, guinea pig. I didn’t get a chance to try this delicacy while I was there (having had food poisoning twice, I stuck with what I knew) but a guy from New Zealand, who had traveled the world, extensively, and was big into risk taking, took a bite out of one and stopped. I guess they make better pets than dinner.
