    Whatever they are eating it always makes me hungry because of their lip smacking lol. And their expressions say, Mmmm…this is good!

    Looks like Burrito loves spinach as much as his treasured coconut….LOL. I love to hear them smacking…yummy! After so many years of just monkey chow they deserve the best food and it’s heartwarming to see them enjoy it so much.

    I guess Burrito took Popeye seriously about eating spinach!!!

    Love his smacking lips, it’s so great how they treasure the simple pleasures!!!

    LOL – have they ever refused to eat anything you’ve given them? (I know that everything you give them is fresh and nutritious, I just wonder if they happen to dislike something in particular.)

    They have a relaxed, happy little glow about them as they’re eating. It speaks volumes about how they view their current life.

    I had to keep re-watching Burrito just chowing on his spinach. I don’t know why, but it just makes me laugh. I love to watch him really enjoying his food and looking around to see what he might be missing!

    Its always so much fun to see what they are up to.

    Normally I would say that lip smacking is a “no – no” but with Burrito not only is it acceptable, it’s just plain adorable……………..

    I also enjoy the nonchalant way Negra munches away on her dinner.

    Oh my gosh, how WONDERFUL it always is, to see these precious chimps enjoying good, healthy food!!! After all those awful years of dry, stupid buscuits. EAT, EAT, EAT! 😉
