With consumer price inflation at 37 percent according to the latest central bank estimate, demand has pushed a kilogram of rat meat up to around 5,000 riel ($1.28) from 1,200 riel last year.
Spicy field rat dishes with garlic thrown in have become particularly popular at a time when beef costs 20,000 riel a kg.
Officials said rats were fleeing to higher ground from flooded areas of the lower Mekong Delta, making it easier for villagers to catch them.

Billy the way this Labour government is killing off the working people and pensioners, we will all have to change our eating habits. I suppose a few nice tender barbequed strips of rat meat carefully mixed with chilli pasta, washed down with a cold Boddies,may not be that bad. Is it fattening?? ;D
cheers
