'''Monkey brains''' is a supposed dish consisting of, at least, partially, the [[brain]] of some species of [[monkey]] or [[ape]].
 
While animal brains have been consumed in various cuisines (e.g. [[eggs and brains]] or [[fried brain sandwiches]]), there is debate about whether monkey brains have actually been consumed. In Western popular culture its consumption is repeatedly portrayed and debated, often in the context of portraying exotic cultures as exceptionally cruel, callous, and/or strange.<ref name=rode/><ref name=arjana/>
