One, is that things such as cuy are usually in the Northern Sierra part of Ecuador (not where we were) and is a delicacy. Most people in slightly tourist areas realize that this is not something most extranjeros eat and do not offer it to them. The only time I have been offered the roasted guinea pig was in a small village that has almost no tourism.
As for the vegetable situation, and I do have dreams about vegetables, what the people eat here is a lot of lentils and beans in soups. While it doesn´t compare to raw spinach, there are vegetables in the diet. They are just not in the quantities we have grown accustomed to in the states.
However, I will not eat white rice (cooked in tons of oil) or ever look at white bread again once I arrive home in July. I will always be grateful for clean water. Not only does it make it easier to stay hydrated and clean, but it allows you to actually eat the vegetables and fruits being grown around you!

Liked reading about your trip, it was a fun time!
