Default Off Topic/On Topic: Disgusting - Monkey Meat Recipe

I was reading an article regarding the monkey attacks in India,
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php...ow_article= 1
where the deputy mayor of Delhi died when he fell from his balcony after
being attacked by monkeys.

Which brought me to wondering if these monkeys could be used eating. But I
guess they are considered sacred in India, monkey god symbolizing strength.
(Yes, I did know that India is Hindu, but is it only the chimp that has
98+/- percent our dna, maybe other monkeys do not :-))



I see that it is a different story he

Recipe: Monkey
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.

Whimsically, or squirrel-ly,
