  In modern practice they (monkey brains that is) are eaten while 
  alive in a few Cambodian schools of dentistry. This is usually done 
  with a drill, and then the group attacks the monkey with straws.
  They try not to slurp up too much so that they can plug the 
  monkey's brain up and place it back in its natural enviroment.
  Its quite humane if you really think about it.
