A woman found a baby snake in her margarita at a Mexican restaurant.
The incident occurred on April 16 at The Patron Mexican Restaurant.
Carletta Andrews described the snake as moving and wrapping around her straw.
Some restaurant experiences are unforgettable for the wrong reasons. Ever found a hair in your food, spotted a bug on your plate, or bit into something that definitely does not belong? For one American woman, named Carletta Andrews, things went to a whole new level of bizarre when a snake dropped into her drink. Yes, you read it right. Carletta Andrews got a real shock when a baby snake fell straight from the ceiling and landed in her margarita at The Patron Mexican Restaurant and Cantina on the evening of April 16.
In a chat with 8News, Carletta recalled that incident. She said, 'I leaned in to take a sip and I noticed something hit me in the forehead and I looked at my husband like what was that..When I turned around, I saw the snake in my margarita.'
Carletta Andrews also mentioned that the snake 'was moving.' She added, 'It started wrapping around my straw.' She said that everything after that is kind of a blur. She remembered workers trying to remove the snake using a stick, but it was actually another customer who eventually picked it up and let it loose outside.
'I kept saying please don't let it go in my purse,' she recalled. 'I left shaking, I was traumatised.' The restaurant reportedly offered to move her to another booth, but she just wanted to head out.
This is not the first time a snake in food has made headlines. Back in March, a man named Rayban Naklengboon from Thailand found a snake inside his popsicle. Yes, you read that right – a black-and-yellow snake was literally frozen in the ice. Rayban posted the shocking discovery on Facebook and shared photos of the popsicle with the reptile clearly visible. Click here to read the full story.
So next time you are about to dig into your snack or dessert, maybe give it a second look – just to be sure there is no unexpected 'ingredient' lurking inside! Better safe than sorry, right?

Prince Harry feels ‘very lonely' in California as he ‘doesn't really have any…'

Prince Harry's life is in a sprawling Italian-style mansion in Montecito with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two young children, Archie and Lilibet, is 'desperately lonely.' 'He doesn't really have any real friends in the area except for (fellow polo player) Nacho (Figueras), and Nacho travels constantly for polo matches,' one friend told NewsNation. 'He is still very close with the 'band of brothers' who were at his wedding — particularly Guy Pelley and Mark Dyer, but… they live in England and the time zones are so different it's very hard to talk regularly.'

He spends a lot of his time chilling with his bodyguards,' he added. Like Harry, both Pelley and Dyer have American wives, but they spend most of their time in Texas and Virginia. 'Of course he does! He spent his entire life in England with family and friends (before Megxit). It's harder to forge deep friendships with people when you're older, especially if you're wary they may speak to the press.' Following his current estrangement from King Charles and Prince William, 'It's like history is repeating itself,' another source noted, alluding to Edward VIII, who abdicated the throne for love and lived in exile with Wallis Simpson, largely cut off from the royal family, surrounded instead by international socialites. Unlike Edward and Wallis, however, Harry and Meghan stayed relevant to the public. Also, Harry was reportedly so upset over alleged delays in securing British passports for his children that he consulted his uncle, Earl Spencer, about possibly adopting his mother's surname.

'Meghan wishes her husband could feel less burdened by the past and more present in the life they've built together,' a source told People Magazine.
