Alastair Norcross discusses this in his article, “Puppies, Pigs, and People: Eating Meat and Marginal Cases.” In this article Norcross tells the story of Fred, a man who lost the ability to taste chocolate due to a car accident.

I did my presentation over how many times my lovely guinea pig Gus whistled at me when I walked in the room. I got Gus about two years ago, and I will say he is a very needy piggy. His specific breed is a teddy guinea pig, which means he has some what long hair, and he is very fluffy. Now, on about my research. As I said before, Gus is needy; therefore, if I were to leave the room and come back he would want a treat, he would want me to pet him on his little head, or he would want me to just…
