Snake meat is seen in a bowl of snake soup served at a snake soup shop in Hong Kong
Snake meat is seen in a bowl of snake soup served at a snake soup shop in Hong Kong January 30, 2013. There are scores of people in Hong Kong who have through generations tamed snakes to make soup out of them, a traditional cuisine believed to be good for the health. Yet the people behind providing fresh snakes for the savoury meal thought to speed up the bodys blood flow and keep it strong in the cold winter months may be doomed, with young people increasingly reluctant to take on a job they see as hard and dirty.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a traditional cuisine in Hong Kong - snake soup. In this image, we see a bowl filled with succulent pieces of snake meat immersed in a steaming broth, served at a renowned snake soup shop. Taken on January 30,2013, by Bobby Yip for Reuters Images, it provides an intriguing glimpse into the unique culinary practices of Hong Kong. Snake soup has been enjoyed for generations in this vibrant city due to its believed health benefits. It is thought to invigorate the body and improve blood circulation during the cold winter months. However, despite its cultural significance, there is growing concern about the future of this age-old tradition. The photograph also sheds light on an underlying issue faced by those who provide fresh snakes for these savory meals. Young people are increasingly reluctant to take up this demanding and often perceived as dirty job. As such, there are concerns that the supply chain may be jeopardized. Bobby Yip's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the visual appeal but also prompts us to ponder upon cultural preservation and generational shifts within societies. This striking image serves as a reminder of how food traditions can both shape and reflect societal changes over time while highlighting our ever-evolving relationship with food and culture.
