It does look like monkey brains… that’s what I thought too when I first saw it on Google images. I was repulsed but then I realized it was food. I’ve seen monkey brains before too I think..

Hi Constance,

Well, I guess I’m happy he told you about it.

The monkey bread was quite good. It takes a little bit of work, but I say it’s definitely worth it.

I am so happy that Braden gave me this site. Because I am definitely going to make this. It looks FANTASTIC!!! I am also ecstatic to try the LadyBaby cakes! Thank you so much for writing this blog.

Mmmm, Monkey bread! I haven’t had it in so long. Mom used to make it all the time. This is definitely happening soon.

They call it Monkey Bread, because you pick it apart with your hands, and eat it it like a monkey. Similar to the way they pick each other’s scalps for bugs and such to keep clean, and to build social bonds.

But yeah, it does look like monkey brains (and tastes like ‘em too!)

Based on my (very thorough and formal Google research, it looks like no one really knows the origin of the name. “Because it looks like monkey brains” was not one of the possibilities, but I might start telling people that anyway.

WHOA that looks good. Do they call it monkey bread because it looks like monkey brains? (Delicious, “I can’t wait to try it” monkey brains, not the gross kind.)
