Headless black snake....don't worry they don't bite
I'll keep the story short but I think that is the only way anyone can eat snake. I came across some Thais cooking one and they just minced it finely before adding herbs etc. Nothing in the pot resembled a snake. So I tried some and all I could taste was ginger, and due to the snake not having been boned beforehand it had a texture of wet sand. Fcuking horrible it was. Anyone who says snake tastes like chicken is a liar IMO.
I had bbqed snake in Viet Nam and it was very nice.
I had boiled snake decades ago in Fiji. Meh.
This vietnamese one was, as you say, marinated. It was killed in front of me, coated in a mixture that I presume included tumeric as it was yellow, and bbq'ed staright away. Very nice.
I was given the beating heart in a glass of VN lao khao mixed with blood. Chugged it, but it didn't stay down for long

Came across this little (5 ft) fellah last week out walking. Head and markings look Viper-ish. Anyone know what it is? (Sorry for crap photo).
I'm no expert but based on the patterns i would say Malaysian Pit Viper.
