Although they cannot digest them and get no nutrition from them, king cobras love the taste of strawberries. Unfortunately, after they eat them they are unable to expel them from their bodies through normal means. A researcher in Bangladesh discovered that the fermentation of the strawberries in the gut of the cobra produced an intensely powerful hallucinogen. That drug is now extremely popular in South East Asia, where it is known as Snake Bite and has reputed, although unproven, aphrodisiac effects. It is however the most expensive recreational drug on the planet, with one ounce costing $35,000.
