Was that Mickey’s Monkey?
Smokey Robinson wants to know.

But does it taste like chicken? If so. I don’t see the problem. ;)

These people need to be put in prison for a long time. They are a threat to our meat supply.

They were all out of little dirty birdie feet.

“CBP seizes monkey carcass, 125 pounds of illegal meat at O’Hare”. The most unusual story I’ve today.

Is monkey meat native to any type of religion/nationality?
To: woweeitsme
According to a website called WorldPopulationReview, plenty of nations eat monkey.
To: MotorCityBuck
It tastes like human. At least the monkey I ate did.

Great green globs of greasy, grimy gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat.
Dirty little birdie feet.

Every BBQ on Guam calls it Monkey Meat on a Stick. Its a joke cause the monkeys are protected by law so you cant eat em. The last year I was there I ate all the monkey meat I could find.
