Utah woman says she found a snake head in canned green beans

A Utah woman says she recoiled when she opened a can of green beans and found…a snake head.

According to KSL, Troy Walker was preparing dinner for elderly neighbors with an LDS Church Young Women’s group Wednesday night.

I’ve never heard a catchy jingle about snake heads, though, so if I found them in a can of green beans like one Utah woman said she recently did, I’d probably pass. This might indicate a hole in the “edible snake head jingle” market. Then she took the snake head and the empty can the beans had come in back to her grocery store.

Western Family vice president of quality control Sharon McFadden said the food company is taking the matter seriously and is working with the supplier that produced the green beans to find out what happened. The supplier of the green beans has also been notified and a review is underway, he said. “We want to know what it is, and we will immediately research and do any level of correction we can”.

Walker said she couldn’t eat the next day because she was queasy but that she’s not mad.

Walker and other youth leaders at the church threw out all the green beans for good measure, although she said some of the teenagers thought it was “kind of cool and fun”. It was just awful’. She has also stated that she is not upset over the incident and in fact is trying to see the humorous side of the events in question and finding the snake’s head is already becoming a fun tale to tell among her and her friends.

She’s hosting a family dinner this weekend, and had to be clear in her texts about what will be on the menu.

The company said it was now investigating the freaky discovery, and as a precautionary measure has suspended shipments of beans in the same batch. “We are not having green beans'”.
