Can I play with Dinner?

So we all have heard the rumors surrounding Chinese cuisine....you can satisfy your desire for everything exotic in the mass butchery they call local markets. PETA members don't flip out. No, I didn't chow down on puppies or kittens. But, I did get the chance to try snake. Here is how it went down:

1. They take the snake out of the bag and you play with said snake until you are thoroughly entertained.

2. You sit there creeped out as you realize what is going on in the kitchen.

3. They bring out a glass of snake BLOOD and you down it with a smile (until they walk out of the room that is). 

4. You are brought dishes that you would never assume consist of snake meat. Stew and snake with ginger were my favorites. Like everything else I try for the first time, "it tasted like chicken" with a more fishy consistency. 

You now know how to enjoy the delicacy that is snake. Below are photos, PETA viewer discretion is advised!
