Can Guinea Pigs Eat Cheese Puffs?

Cheese puffs, cheese curls, cheese balls, cheesy puffs, corn curls, corn cheese are a puffed corn snack/chip, coated with a mixture of cheese or cheese-flavored powders.

They are manufactured by extruding heated corn dough through a die that forms the particular shape.

They may be ball-shaped, curly (“cheese curls”), straight, or irregularly shaped. Some are shaped as animals or other objects.

Puffcorn is a similar food, without cheese flavoring. (source)

Can guinea pigs eat cheese puffs?

They can’t eat them, unfortunately.

They have no nutritional benefit for them like fruits and veggies do so shouldn’t be fed purposely to them.

However, if they should nibble one or two of them, they will be fine.
