of different flavoured ice creams,
bacon, crab, fish and chips, Jalapeño and squid ink to name just a few, but this is a new one for me, made out of what we in the UK would regard as pets, guinea pigs, but of course where they come from Ecuador, they are food, so food stall owner María del Carmen Pilapaña has developed
an ice cream flavor that many people enjoy, from the Associated
Press reports, Pilapaña’s operation is small. It consists of two tables in
an open area lined with dentists’ clinics and other businesses. Even so, demand
is growing. Every week, the entrepreneur prepares 150 servings ($1 for a cone)
of guinea pig ice cream, Pilapaña manages to concentrate guinea pig flavor after
cooking and preparing a pate from the animal’s flesh, adds milk or cream and
refrigerates the concoction until it has the rough consistency of ice cream, apparently the taste is similar to chicken, so will that be one scoop or two? with or without the chocolate flake? sprinkles on top? nuts to go? decisions, decisions! photograph AP/Dolores Ochoa.
