A chef preparing a dish made from cobra flesh died after the snake bit his hand - 20 minutes after he had severed it from its body. Peng Fan from Foshan, Guangdong province, southern China, had been preparing a special dish made from Indochinese spitting cobra, a rare delicacy.

It was as he went to chuck the cobra's head in the bin that it bit him, injecting Mr Peng with its flesh-killing, neurotoxic venom. Scroll down for video

Final act of revenge: The severed head of a decapitated snake snaps in purely reflexive fury, as did the one that killed chef Peng Fan as he prepared it for diners at a restaurant in Foshan, Guangdong province, China The snake was being diced up to be made into snake soup, which is a delicacy in Guangdong and a much sought after dish in the province's high-end restaurants. Restaurant guest Lin Sun, 44, who was in the restaurant with his wife Su at the time said: 'We were in the restaurant having a meal for my wife's birthday when suddenly there was a lot of commotion. 'We did not know what was happening but could hear screams coming from the kitchen.

Biting the hand that feeds you- to someone else.

How about canned politician’s mouths?
t
(probably would be at least as poisonous as the Cobra mouths, and would get rid of a big problem in society....)

Spitting Cobra says: “Did you really think you could just cut off my head and get away with it?!”

[Focault's Pendulum]

How about canned politician’s mouths?

Much of what they say comes from the can.

[Secret Agent Man]

gotta remember not only to chop off the head, but crush it as well.

I hope they clean the cutting boards well

Cobras not venomous, not poisonous.

Already posted.

So? It gives us a chance to consider the actions of a stupid man again.

Where would you get an cobra antidote? In China, such an antidote is liable to be spinach and message.

Karma bites.

Cobras not venomous, not poisonous

I can see that made little sense.

Cobras not are venomous, not poisonous.
