fwiw, to paraphrase a character from "THE PATRIOT", snake's a good meal.

the Thai's, Vietnamese, Burmese & lots of other Asians cook them in numerous TASTY ways.

snake tastes a lot like catfish & since it's round, it LOOKS like catfish, too.

btw, a python "dresses out" at about 70% of live weight. = CHEAP PROTEIN!

That's really a good yield. Every so often I make a chicken/macaroni salad. The last two times I've done it, I've weighed the boned, skinned chicken and been surprised to see it come out to only about 33% of the weight of the raw, undressed chicken. Add in the weight of the skin for those of us who like to eat the skin, and the yield's still only a little under 40% of raw weight.
