"Monkey meat, big or small, it's all the same once it's in the bowl."
I don't think I could eat something smarter than Al Gore.
Somehow BSE, TSE and CJD diseases come to mind.
Monkey-it's what's for dinner!
(If what I just wrote makes you sad or angry,
This brings back memories of that old ditty we used to sing at camp. There are many variations, but the basic lyrics, regarding the offerings of the camp's kitchen, usually include:
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat
Little birdies' dirty feet
I'm not particularly knowledgeable about this subject, but eating the flesh of primates sounds like an excellent way of acquiring disease strains that specialize in primates. I'd stick to Big Macs.
Monkey meat pot pie! YUM!
Look ma, I'm a main course!
..Give this guy, a hand. :/
To the tune of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody...
If you like Hungarian food,
They have a goulash which is very good.
Or if you wish a dish that's Chinese,
Somewhere down in Column B there's lobster Cantonese.
Enchiladas, that's what people eat in Mexico.
Shish kebab is skewered, in Armenia you know.
Then there's blubber, the favorite of the frigid Eskimo.
Such delicious dishes, no matter where you go.
Chicken cacciatore is Italian.
Kangaroo souffle must be Australian.
Mutton chops are definitely British.
Chicken soup undoubtedly is Yiddish.
Pumpernickel comes from Lithuania.
Hassenpfeffer comes from Pennsylvania.
Wiener schnitzel's Austrian or German.
Kindly pass the sauerbraten, Herman.
Borscht is what they're eating in the Soviet.
Wait, I think we've got some on the stove yet.
See the Mau Maus underneath the jungle sky.
Jolly Mau Maus, eating missionary pie.
Frenchmen eat a lot of bouillabaisse there.
Dutchmen eat a sauce called Hollandaise there.
Smorgasbord in Sweden is the winner.
In America it's TV dinner.
So there you have one food from each land.
Each one delicious, each one simply grand.
Mix them all up, in one big mish mosh.
And what have you got? Hungarian goulash!
