Guinea pig made the top 50? What kind of weird-ass voting methodology did they indulge? Who the hell eats guinea pig anyway?

*checks you out*
That's a nicely well-rounded list you've got!

yeah, i've eaten everything but the REALLY weird stuff. a lot of these are things you could only eat if you travel to a certain location though. too bad i never had barramundi or brighton bay bugs while i was in australia, i'd be down to five!

i wonder what makes a cornish pasty different from any other meat pie type of thing?
