NEW YORK (AP) ― A Liberian woman accused of smuggling endangered monkey meat from Africa to New York has failed to persuade a judge that she shouldn't be prosecuted because she needed the butchered carcasses for religious reasons. ... The dozen boxes containing the skulls, limbs and torsos of monkeys and baboons had been shipped from Guinea and were headed to Manneh's home on Staten Island. Agents who searched her house found 33 more animal parts in her garage.

Manneh is already serving jail time in an unrelated a case in which she was convicted of trying to run down a woman she suspected of sleeping with her husband.

I think her and her husband need to go back to their peaceful monkey stew paradise of Liberian.

Monkey bushmeat is commonly consumed in tropical Africa. Monkey meat is prepared fresh in rural areas. It is also smoked to preserve it and allow it to be sent to market in the cities. A common sight along rural roads is smoked whole monkeys for sale, tales tied to heads to make carrying handles. Fresh monkey meat is often cooked in a Tomato Sauce made from tomatoes, chile peppers, and onions. Smoked monkey meat can be prepared in a Tomato-Peanut sauce: Soak the smoked meat in water, then rinse and drain it. Fry tomatoes, onions, chile pepper, in hot palm oil. Add tomato paste and the monkey meat. Simmer until all is tender. Season with salt and pepper.

Oh boy. A little SIV and Ebola with that monkey meat? Mm-mm.

Dear Madam, please conduct your monkey meat rituals in Africa. Please stay in Africa if you still conduct monkey meat rituals.

Monkey meat is “Bushmeat,” huh?

Why am I not surprised this story appears in the NY media?

We use to have monkey meat, along with mystery meat in the school lunchroom, when I was a kid.
