I don't think the canned ones are made with the python stock or even the ones in the restaurants out of China, M'sia and S'pore. The Thai makes them lousy there. Anyway, this dish has gone to the dogs due to commercialization.
Whatever the world may say, it's still a must for every wedding dinner and any official function(including those hosted by the govt). It's culture.

One thing I must add, this is part of a man made evolution for the sharks. In the past, they only take the fish with the biggest fins. Then when that ran out, they took fish with big fins. Do you realize that the fish with the small fins are not touched? When times comes for the fish with the big fins are gone, only a genetic pool of small finned sharks with interbreed and will result in many or only small finned sharks. If the collection persists, there many be sharks with a stub due to inbreeding. This is what happened to a rattle snake on an island and the only food there are the birds. Those with rattles will alert the birds and never got food. They died off. In time (long, long time) they became rattle-less rattle snakes as inbreeding set in.
