Monkey Food Auction
At the request of a number of people, I have put the leftover chow up for auction. I know lots of you wanted to buy just one chow, but shipping and transaction costs were going to make that a pain in the arse. I'd rather swing for the fence.
All proceeds will go to World Vision. Maybe there's someone out there who really enjoyed the Diaries and has a lot of cash kicking around. In that case, World Vision will get a lot of cash. Let's hope so.

Ebay, if they see your auction, and will because it will probably get hit a bunch, will delete it because you linked to other sites (it's against their rules). So you might consider deleting the links on the ad...
Good luck!!!
So...
Does this make you an angry young poop flinger now...?
Well, E-bay hasn't pulled the listing yet, so I'm not angry yet.
Since my links only go to show the provenance of the item, and because it's for charity, maybe E-bay will not pull it. If they do, I will host a private auction through other means (accomodating existing bidders as much as possible). E-bay will actually be way better off if they don't pull it - they're good business people, so hopefully they see that.
This may have been partially responsible for at least some of the surge in traffic:

Scroll down to the first list. The link is about halfway through the list.
Monkey Chow OUT! good luck your other ideas in years to come!
I doubt they'll pull it.
The links are sent to sites that sell the product being auctioned and most of the traffic for the auction is probably coming from this site not ebay itself so you aren't siphoning off their traffic either.
Is monkey chow made from monkeys? Never mind why except I have an experiment in mind if it is.

hey man. i really enjoyed your monkey chow diaries, and im really sorry you didnt obtain any superhuman monkey strength.
you should post a video of you eating a steak or something
Just watched The Monkey Chow Diaries over at YouTube. Very funny!, plus you make a number of good points. Specifiacally about the crap we feed animals, and the costs associated with modern, western, life. Well done.
I just watched The Monkey Chow Diaries videos. Quite odd, yet entertaining at the same time. I actually found a link to it off a coolrunning.com forum page--it amazes me how things like this travel. Anyhow, thanks for the amusement.
Has this taught you to be appreciative when you receive?
I would have bid on the bag because my kinkajou really eats monkey chow. But now that it's going for collector's prices, I'll have to skip it.
Here's Momo the kinkajou having a banana

Thank you. I found your website during the Monkey Chow incident and have become one of your biggest fans. You have so inspired me to get angry myself and stick it to Bell Canada. Because of your suggested resources I have found an address and I will now proceed to write an angry young lady letter. lol.
you can find my ranting at http://haunting-love.livejournal.com/
I will be sure to post about it there. There are several other things I am angry about but your blog takes the cake.
Good job!
wow you ate monkey food? that kicks ASS! Good luck with the auction and the.... ick organic beer.
It's amazing to me that you're still single! Thoughtful, funny, and cute. What more could a woman ask for?
hey Adam..i friend sent me your website because i was contemplating doing something similar...and to my surprise i see you...i know you...remember fresh fest and that nasty dentist stole your wisdom teeth and i kindly nursed you back to health...glad to see you sense of humor and hair line are still in tact...C.
Man you are crazy about this monkey-chow if you have the time and need some help with Free Internet Advertising stop by if you are interested!
Hey i'd just like to let you know I was reading your website and after reading you're reply to credit card junkmail I recieved some credit card junkmail. Now Capital One is getting an envelope of expired coupons I had laying around. Thanks for the brillant idea.
I just noticed that as I was about to type a comment, the word verification letters were " r f y k i," or "Rafiki," the baboon from the Lion King movie.
I'm all creeped out with synchronicity, now...even though baboons are apes, not monkeys.
Did you lose weight?
Do it again! Do it again!
WTF is going on here?
Superb job!
How about the sausage recipe?

Hey hey - good to see that you made some good money for this listing. Watched this site through your experiement - effin' hysterical. Love your site.
I work for eBay, and can say that you wouldn't have gotten your auction for the links - they weren't going to other pages where you were trying to sell things. Technically, they could have been yanked for violating charity policy, since you need to get consent from the charity in question first and put that consent in a listing. But looks like no one reported it, which is good, cause I think that's a pretty anal rule anyway.
You are the greatest Monkey of all!
I had to give you the first link on our site, you rock.
