Monkey Gland Steak
South Africa is the only country in the world where you can order something called a "monkey gland steak" at a restaurant without the risk of a real internal organ being placed before you. It was invented many decades ago by an overseas chef as a pointed insult, aimed at the brash inhabitants of Johannesburg who poured Worcestershire and tomato sauce over everything!
