Maybe being a vegetarian isn't such a good thing? :eek:

"A mother of four found a snake head in a bag of frozen green beans while cooking for her family in Houston, Texas, MyFoxPhoenix.com reported Monday.

Ernestine Jamison said she opened the bag of Pictsweet frozen cut green beans last month to find what she first thought was a rock.

"I saw something in there I wasn’t for sure what it was. I thought it was a rock because it was hard," Jamison said.

But upon further review, the Jamison family concluded the green and black frozen object nestled in their dinner was a severed snake head.

"When I saw it was a snake's head I just threw it down and called my kids and said I got a snake head in the green beans, everybody said 'Oh lord, you got a snake head in the green beans'," Jamison said.

After the screaming subsided, 15-year-old Sarah Jamison grabbed her camera and took video and pictures of their uninvited dinner guest.

"I saw big eyes, with a mouth open and a tongue coming out, it looked like it was ready to attack," she said.

Jamison called Pictsweet, and they offered her $150.

But she wasn’t looking for money and turned it down.

A letter sent by the company’s insurance provider to Jamison claims Pictsweet "is not responsible for this accident," and they are "denying liability".

The company also claims it wasn’t a snake head - it was a frog head.

"But it's still gross whether it's a frog or snake," said Jamison.

Now Jamison has to try harder than ever to get her children to eat their greens.

"Vegetables, umm, I don't look at vegetables the same, I never really liked the vegetables but like now I can't even go near vegetables," 17-year-old Mariam Jamison said.

MyFoxPhoenix attempted to contact Pictsweet several times in recent weeks to respond to the report, but calls were not returned."

Gross!!! I never did like green beans..........:(

I once got a nut (as in nut & bolt) from a piece of machinery in some deli potato salad - and a broken tooth as a result! :mad:

They paid my dental bill.

It sounds as though Pictsweet needs a good health inspection and new quality control procedures!!

Their reaction (lawyer) isn't too swift either - I bet with lots of publicity he would change his tune!!

Oh, so if it's a frog's head, you're not supposed to mind finding it in your frozen green beans?

I was thinking that too. But it does look more like a frog to me instead of a snake. But either way........ewwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!

A mate of mine bought a tin of nuts one Xmas, with one of those pull top lids.
He opened it and there was a workmans greasy old workglove in it. Naturally it was from China.

They might have something there. . .like the frozen dinners that have chicken and vegetables. this could be the new exotic gourmet version of snake (or frog) and green beans!!

Next time you buy a packet of beans, read the small print.....it should say something like "This Product Contains No Nuts, Frog heads or Snakes, But May Contain Small traces Of Mexican Walking Fish". I do !!!! And if that is written on the packet, I simply don't buy it !!!!

Thats why I buy mine fresh. I expect to find critters in it, so I wash it & then I freeze it. Its also WAY cheaper to buy fresh & freeze it yourself...
