A guy in the Philly area evidently found a snake head in his green beans. Almost looks like a blood python head, but who knows.

That looks like either a turtle or possibly lizard head. Looks nothing like a snake's head to me though. I live in the Philly area too, but hadn't seen this story yet. Interesting.

Notice in the article that they don't say "snake head" they say "snakehead". A Snakehead is a type of Asian fish that has accidentally found it's way into rivers in the northeastern US, particularly New York where it's wreaking havoc on native species. Whether the beans were canned in the U.S. or in southeast asia, I think the original story may have been referring to the Snakehead fish which is a common ingredient in East Asian recipes. If you look at the photo of the "head" with it's mouth open, it has a big thick tongue with no teeth (as opposed to a forked tongue) so whatever it is it's probably not a snake.

I could be wrong, but all the articles about the subject say "snakehead" not "snake head" and most people in the northeast would associate this name with a fish, not a snake.

Very weird pictures and article though...
