After a long and difficult debate, Tim finally decided to spend his Christmas holiday in Costa Rica. He can already imagine himself relaxing on the magnifi cent sandy beaches, encountering M&M- loving monkeys in the jungle.
What is "M&M- loving monkeys" here?
M&M's are little round chocolates with a candy coating, maybe the size of two aspirin tablets. You get a couple hundred of them in a usual size bag. Like most animals, monkeys really like things with sugar in them, which they don't get as part of their natural diet. Tourists have obviously brought along their own personal stock of candy and given enough of them to the monkeys to get them hooked.
M&Ms are a small, sugar-coated chocolate candy popular in the United States.
The author is suggesting that the monkeys in the jungles of Costa Rica like to eat M&Ms candies. I am not familiar with Costa Rica. Perhaps the monkeys there have been fed candy by American tourists often enough to develop a taste for this candy.
is there an echo in here?
