Many years ago I bought a tin of snake soup in a Chinese supermarket. It sounded "interesting" and I was up for trying all sorts of odd food then - although I drew the line at chicken and duck feet. Anyway, this tin sat in the back of the cupboard for years and years. Whenever I came across it, I imagined a snake inside it, coiled, ready to spring out as soon as the tin was opened - like a Jack in the Box. Finally, I couldn't face it anymore so I gave it to a friend in work who really would eat anything. He said it was just like soup with bits in and was quite nice. I wasn't sure whether I was relieved or disappointed!
