I'm Cute And Cuddly! Eat Me!

For Michelle, who said Guinea Pigs could not be eaten (this is in the comments regarding my own comments about the Heifer International catalog), I submit this passage word for word from the publication:

2 Trios of Guinea Pigs:
To help Peruvian families add protein to their diets and increase their income. (Not to editorialize, but shouldn't that have been incomes plural?)


However, two species have different purposes for their recipients:

2 Goats:
To help two Guatemalan families provide milk for their children, and earn extra income. (I hope that doesn't mean the goats have to take in laundry and wait tables in cantinas.)


2 Pigs:
To enable families in Cambodia to attain greater self-reliance. (Does this mean the pigs sit around in Cambodian lounge chairs and make sure the families do everything for themselves?)


Hey, a llama's only $120. Wonder if I could buy one and keep him in the backyard?
