My Guinea pig has just eaten some pizza crust. He grabbed it off my plate and ate it. Is this dangerous? I'm totally panicking

It is not good for him as a regular diet, but a one off should not give him any problems. Take a deep breath!
 
Don't panic. It's not ideal but shouldn't be life threatening. Monitor his poo output over the next 24 hours and take him to the vet if he stops pooing or eating.
 
Thank god. I literally was on the verge of a coronary. He never ever goes for human food so I was not expecting it. I swear he's like a wee kid and has got so cheeky in his behaviour haha
