In the UK there is a shop called Edible that sells things like this. Their site is http://www.edible.com/shop/ for further information. I must say that the lollipops are rather lovely!

I must say that your flickr photo beats the hell out of this article in oddity. Good shot.

Well, they sell bottles of liquor with snakes in it in Viet Nam. I took some pictures in Saigon a few years ago. I have one up on Flickr.

I agree...stuffing wild animals in bottles of vodka is GENIUS. Especially if someone can get rich while doing it!!!!!!! So the guy erradicates the snakes while making a buck...GENIUS!!!!

I wish I had a GIANT SAW so I could cut along the border of Texas and let that M****RF***ER float away into the Gulf of Mexico.

I may invoke the wrath of Herpetologist's worlwide over this....but having grown up in south Texas....I'd feel NO remorse over drowning rattle snakes in vodka. I wouldn't drink it...but who am I tell anyone else they shouldn't. If you went out every day hunting for rattlesnakes on the same acre in south Texas, you'd still never run out of snakes no matter how successful you were. Just head out to the Freer, Tx. Rattlesnake roundup...you'll understand.
