How to make “tacos” for your hamster

by Meg on December 2, 2007

It’s the question on the top of EVERYONE’s list: ‘How do I make tacos for my hamster?! he/she demands them!!!’

Thanks to the fine folks over at HamsterTracker.com, you can rest easy with the following recipe:

Ingredients:
Tortilla wrap
Carrot
White Cabbage
Bean Sprouts
Grated Gouda Cheese

All ingredients are well chopped, and Taco-ed in a nice hamster-serve-sized Taco.

Watch as your ham tentatively tastes (see tongue) their taco, then demolishes it!

Thank you, Spokes Ham Lucy 3.0, and Mathijs over at HamsterTracker.com

The tinniest of tastes : P
Does this seem tasty to anyone else too? I’d try it.

Can hamsters eat raw beans or bean sprouts? Rats can’t. I have to pick out the bean sprouts before giving my rats leftover Thai food.

Sounds delicious, actually, and I’m a dedicated carnivore – mmm, sprouts!

sully: “Cabbage and gouda? I hope the hamster lives in a well ventilated area.”

If a hamster farts, and no one’s around, does it make a sound?

Theo, do you watch Iron Chef? They always have the ceiling cam food shots! LOL!

Liz, LMAO! What?

17 Theo 12.03.07 at 4:46 am

Bugmom — not often, but we do like that show. The ceiling cam isn’t just their trick, though; ALL the cooking shows do it. And if you’ve ever seen one of those in-store cooking demonstrations at a Williams-Sonoma (or other high-end kitchen store) they often have a strategically-angled mirror over the stove instead.

Oh, so we’ve gone from ham’tocks to hamtacos?

CUTE!

19 berthaslave 12.03.07 at 5:29 am

Perhaps a wee bit of tobasco, while we’re discussing the intestinal condition of Lucy 3.0?

And yah…COXCU is definitely called for!

20 Pliny 12.03.07 at 7:04 am

Beautiful presentation on the haster’s tacos! Do you do people food too?

Quick question: When I was little I had pet gerbils, and the vet said not to give them cabbage, as it gave them gas, causing them intestinal discomfort/strain. Is cabbage safe for hammies?

21 Shannon 12.03.07 at 8:06 am

COXCU on that tongue – STAT!

22 Kar 12.03.07 at 5:10 pm

I can only imagine what he’d cook for his human girlfriend.

23 jen 12.03.07 at 5:53 pm

24 Too Late 12.03.07 at 6:54 pm

There’s a C.O.X.C.U. of the tongue if you follow the link under the pic… ahdorabuhls!

25 Danielle 12.03.07 at 7:22 pm

26 lurkertype 12.03.07 at 10:51 pm

27 BrianMPLS 12.04.07 at 12:48 am

liz makes me smile. Guess I’m not a momma. Good thing, too; I don’t think my man-bits would recover from childbirth. Xo\

You people who want a COXCU of a hamster tongue are gross. I’m with I<3mS; Lucy looks darn tasty!

28 indigoreiki 12.07.07 at 7:10 pm
