4/17/2006: Venezuelan coin biter

A previous IotD featured kids trying to bite coins out of a melon in Indonesia, so I was interested to see this shot of a young one in Venezuela doing pretty mcuh the same thing (minus the oil that coats the Indonesian melon).

You hope the coins are cleaned before being put in the fruit, and you hope the kids' dental plans are paid up before they go doing this.

It is now spotted in these two different cultures, but sitting here in North America, I've never even heard of it before.
