    I haven't had a chance to try it yet. :( I really want to, though. Even guinea pigs look like they'd be really REALLY tender. I salivate every time i see one. ;)

    What's it like? I've had ostrich, buffalo, goat, rabbit, squirrel, frog, snake, alligator, etc etc etc.... this seems to be a biggie that i've missed out on.

    Imagine pulled pork, but with a slight tuna flavor. Very unique and very good.

    ok. enough with eating strange rodents the size of small cows... and if you want to see scantily clad women, start your own thread.

    this thread is for finding us a new mascot.

    need more suggestions on what icon would be a good mascot for us. :)


    if you think this is stupid, keep your comments to yourself.
