On my recent trip to Ecuador/Peru, I found myself considering those that betray their brethren. For example, we have Mr. Peanut, a peanut that advertises people to buy other peanuts to eat.
Similarly, we have Starkist’s Charlie the Tuna.
We also have this:
This is a statue of a guinea pig that is attempting to draw in travelers from the road in the Sacred Valley in Peru to buy and eat guinea pigs.
Odd how many different mascots for food advocate buying their brethren for consumption. A bit creepy even.
