Guinea pigs were originally domesticated for their meat - not for their companionship. In fact, the rodents remain a popular source of protein for many Andean peoples in South America, who first domesticated them 7,000 years ago. Even today, guinea pig (called "cuy") is a common sight on South American menus.
