Earl Hartman was a little rattled by something he says he found in a can of green beans: a snake head. The Philadelphia man said he found the inch-long head on his plate Wednesday night, right between a chicken breast and buttered noodles. He said it came out of the green bean can.

"When I sat down, I noticed something didn't look right," Hartman said. "It didn't look like a green bean."

A spokesman confirmed that a customer reported finding a "foreign substance" in a can of green beans, but said officials had not determined what it was.

The store conducted spot checks of other cans, but nothing out of the ordinary turned up. Similar cans were removed from the shelves as a precaution.

poor snake got chopped

Ew. I'll be a little freaked if I found a snake head. o.o

I feel bad for the guy.

Gross ....kinda makes ya wonder what really goes on in packing plants

Well, I hope if that ever happens to me I'd be able to tell right away that it doesn't look like a string bean...

I'm wondering what happened to the rest of the snake?

He ate it before he noticed the head.
