Maybe that will put a smile on your face the next time you have to clean up after the thing. |
Ahhh, yes. Between my husband and I secretly we call him "E.R." for Emergency Rations. I am fattening him up
Actually I know all about eating Cuy because I am Peruvian, it's the food of my peeps.
But I have yet to try it.
