Snake for snack

Five-year-old Jordan Willett sat down to breakfast when he found a two-ft long snake inside his box of cereal. The British boy thought he had found a toy when the serpent _ a harmless corn snake _ slithered out of the packet of "Golden Puffs" his parents had ought from a discount store called Nettoin central England. "It was quite long and popped its head up. I've seen snakes on TV before but never in a box of cereal," the boy said.

The shop has asked its suppliers to review procedures and check on the stock. "This does seem to be a bizarre incident; we are treating it seriously," Netto director has said.
