Somewhere in New Hampshire There Was A Wedding Missing Its Monkey Meat

Just the headline is enough to turn your stomach, and the story doesn't make it any better:
In 2003, a large suitcase containing the remains of 26 butchered monkeys was confiscated at Logan Airport in Boston on its way from Ghana.

The 300 pounds of raw meat, destined to be served as the main course at a wedding in New Hampshire, was "oozing out of its container," said Tom Healy of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

When we got married 20 years ago (next month) all we had was cake, nuts, punch and mints. I never even considered monkey meat.
