I'm Mexican and I use the phrase from time to time.

If you decide to bring some food on a trip to the zoo, chances are you bring a home-made "Torta" (imagine a fat-baguette sandwhich) which is made with birote. That's why you'd probably feed bread to a monkey.

The phrase could be translated as: "Hey monkey! Here's your bread"

And it could be understood as: "Monkey! Here's what you deserve" Or "Take that, stupid"

In context: You'd want to say this to a friend when he got owned

You could, of course, create your own versions. Have you ever heard of: "Toma perro en el hocico" (take it in the snout, you dog) ?

Toma chango tu birote is understood as 'that's what you get"

or also as yeah right'?

It literally means: here is your bread monkey...but it makes no sense because its a slang.

its mexican but i don`t know if its understood anywhere else, my teacher was explaining in spanish and she said that chango=monkey (atleast in this case) and birote=long bread (like the french bread) and thats how she spelled the word, plus she gave me an example: if your friends hits a car by mistake or if he fell down...... so you would tell him toma chango tu birote (to make fun).

This is definitely slang. What country is it from? "chango" can mean a lot of things. Check our site dictionary, www.wordreference.com, and www.jergasdehablahispana.org.I believe the spelling of the last word should be virote.
