It's from the Simpsons television show. Willie the Scottish (elementary school) groundskeeper used it. In the episode it appeared in, about 10 years ago, the teachers went on strike, and the non-faculty had to teach. Willie was teaching the French class. He finally broke down, and referred to the French as "Cheese-eatin' Surrender Monkeys"!

I think it was Robin Williams who called the French "Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys" in his act.
