The reason this show got me heated is because how many survival shows do they need on Discovery? With all of them highlighting the same thing: the killing and eating of snakes. These people are not stuck in the wild. Their crew likely has food, water, and shelter for them behind the camera. And 99.9% of the civilized population will not find themselves in these extreme situations.

I just don't see the necessity to kill and eat the animal on camera other than the shock value. Oh, let's get this girly-girl woman who is deathly afraid of snakes to chop its head off and then cry afterwards on camera.... that'll keep the yahoos coming back for more next week... Also, I wouldn't have a problem killing and eating any animal if I was in a survival situation. I just don't anticipate ever being in one (knock on wood).
