    This is very aneurysm posting, I've tried to decode it three times now and I'm not sure if I'm having a stroke or it's just nonsense.

    I think it's pretty common in South America.

    Edit: nope, that's guinea pigs.

    Only in Bolivia, Ecuador and Perú. You aren't going to find cuy anywhere else.

    Every search result I've found says they are guinea pigs.

    "Cuy" is a dish. It seems cuy can sometimes include a broader class of rodent, but guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) is definitely one of them. They eat guinea pigs in the Andes. They were originally domesticated there to be food.

    Originally, guinea pigs were domesticated as livestock for their meat, in the Andean region of South America, and they are still consumed there.

    So I don't know where you're getting that they're different, or that they don't eat guinea pigs.

    It must be a lot of work to get enough hamster meat to feed two people.

    Hamster is the leaner version of SPAM. Which is obviously made from Squirrels Possum And Mice.

    That toast not being on some kind of plate makes me more uncomfortable than I thought it would (maybe because that kitchen counter looks kinda ew?).

    What is OOP even asking? That looks like a perfectly acceptable meal. Other than the hamster meat.
