Cambodian field rats, specifically. The kids go through sugar cane fields to hunt them. They’re a dietary staple there. They aren’t like sewer rats, and probably taste a bit like pork. They’re probably healthier animals than most of the meat you’d get in the US would be. If you’re ever in SE Asia and have the opportunity, highly encourage you to try one.
Can’t decide if I would. They look good, but… rats.
