Cooked, salted or dried, field mice strung on sticks are sold as a popular delicacy in Malawi markets and roadside stalls.

The mice are hunted in corn fields after the harvest when they have grown plump on a diet of grains, fruits, grass and the odd insect.

The most widely eaten species is known locally as Kapuku, gray in color and with a shorter tail than the more common rat.

Now, Larry Madowo has had a taste of this local delicacy and lived to tell about it.

He asks, "Should I eat the head as well?" cutting off a chunk of the rat on a stick.

Here are reaction by Kenyans.
