Guinea pigs must have vitamin C. Most commercial food has some in it, but you can give them sections of fresh orange once in a while, too. Most of them like it.

They need an unlimited supply of Timothy hay (not alfalfa!). You should also be giving them a vitamin C supplment, as it can be tricky to make sure that the pigs are getting the appropriate amount of vitamin C with veggies.
