The modern "civilized" perspective (perhaps it's a more "urban" perspective) never ceases to amaze.  This snake piece was cleaned and cooked just like the beans.  In many cultures this would be considered a treat or a "prize" in the beans.....extra protein.  It's ironic how the perspective that  screams at snakes heads often pays no attention to toxins in the beans from pesticides, herbicides and petrochemical fertilizers used to grow them or bisphenol, aluminum,  preservatives and other industrial food processing chemicals that permeate many canned foods........ or the myriad of toxins contained in  artificial fragrances, cosmetics,  hair colors etc. all of which can enter, collect in and eventually affect the human metabolism.   In comparison that snake's head is a healthy alternative :)
