Neville Linton was in an Aldi store last year when he bought a pile of broccoli. But when he got home he nearly jumped when he discovered a live snake wrapped in his purchase.
The 63-year-old was preparing a meal when he spotted the non-venomous snake, later identified as a ladder snake, near the stem of his broccoli.
“It was pretty scary. “I’m not good with snakes,” Neville said.
“Luckily I didn’t leave the broccoli in the kitchen, otherwise it would have escaped into the house.
“It would have posed a huge risk to us because we have two vulnerable people living here.
According to Sky News, the large-scale cast is native to southwestern Europe, including countries such as Portugal, Spain and France. The species is not venomous, but can cause serious bites.
