Dried Rattler.
I recently received some unhappy news. One of my favorite people in the world, who is also related to me, needed surgery to remove a likely cancerous growth. Distraught, I went to my sister- in- law Chucha for a restorative hug. She gives seriously comforting hugs.
I explained my distress and the following day Felipe came home with a gift from Chucha, a hunk of dried rattlesnake. I am to eat a small piece every day to protect me from the possibility of genetically related cancer.
According to an oncologist treating a woman here in La Tigra, rattlesnake meat is one of the best cancer preventives.
How does it taste? Sort of salty, sort of rancid. Still, I’m grateful to Chucha and all her healing gifts, and I will eat every bite.
I am thrilled to report my dear friend’s prognosis was the very best it could be, and she will require no follow up therapy. Except perhaps, a hunk of dry rattlesnake meat. 🙂
Eating rattlesnake meat for my health. Probecho 😛

Considering how horrible some cancer treatment can be, “sort of salty, sort of rancid”, sounds like a walk in the park. All the best!
Definately.
That is one bigass piece of rattlesnake, but I’d give it a go if I could catch one and put it in my dehydrator. Enjoy. Great news about your friend! I wonder if smoking one would work– I’m speaking of a smoker not lighting it’s tail and puffing, ha!
Usually the meat is left over the comal, in essence smoking it. This meat was air dried, which, I think, accountsbfor then rancid taste.
Awesome! i love reading about these folk remedies!! ❤
See you soon Kate!
FAscinating. =)
So glad you enjoyed it Diana 🙂
