A Salty Tale
From the Quiddit vault from WAY back in the day. Growing up in the south, I came to know all about one of the bizarre local denizens…the banana slug. These hearty and hefty mollusks would roam the streets by night and leave sparkly slimy trails behind to be pondered during the day by us humans. They reigned supreme in the moist humid tropical environment of Hattiesburg Mississippi.
However, these nocturnal beasties have a major kryptonite factor. Their weakness is SALT. It is a cruel and unusual death for these fellas, but sometimes people would sprinkle salt on them which causes a rapid dehydration often within minutes. So, they don’t explode like this guy does, but …kinda!
Be careful out there people…
