'''Grinders''' are a type of monkey that antagonizes [[Yoshi]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. Grinders usually appear in tropical locations and for unknown reasons seem to enjoy attacking Yoshi without provocation. Some of their methods of attack includes spitting seeds, dropping bombs, and grabbing [[Baby Mario]]. Grinders cannot be defeated with eggs or by getting stomped. This only stuns them. To take them out, Yoshi has to either eat them, or run over them while they are unconscious. Some are harmless and just a source of eggs. However they are difficult to eat because of their speed.
