Snake Wine

From Wikipedia:

Snake wine (r??u r?n in Vietnamese) is an alcoholic beverage that includes a whole venomous snake in the bottle. It originated in Vietnam and can be found around Southeast Asia.

However, the snake venom is denatured by the ethanol; its proteins are unfolded and therefore inactivated.

From 11 Points:

This is not a comprehensive list of the best signs ever seen on “The Simpsons”.

Business names, business slogans, messages on the church sign… for 20 years now, the writers have almost never missed.

So what I set out to do was put together a list of 11 signs featured on “The Simpsons” that I find to be exceptionally brilliant. And I know I left out some great ones. I had to. So with apologizes to Stoner’s Pot Palace, Flowers By Irene, no outside Eucharist and so many more, here are 11 ingenious signs on “The Simpsons”…
