Strange, I just said the same thing about the Flavor Flav strip two days prior to this one. However, I have to disagree with you in this case as Teodor would not say, "Oh, AIDS."

Yeah, that's the current theory. Monkeys eat crops and produce, starving subsistence farmers gotta eat the monkeys. They also fed slaughtered monkey carcasses to pigs. People on the edge of starvation make choices, you gotta respect it.

You can't get HIV from eating infected monkey meat - unless you have a cut in your mouth. Also, monkeys are too dissimilar from humans for the virus to have come directly from them, without going via something more similar, like chimpanzees.
Interestingly, last year they traced the point where the virus spread from beast to man:
