My other half is feeling absolutely disgusted by the fact that she just found not 1 but 2 worms in a pack of long beans from tesco, she call me screaming about how she felt as if she had worms crwling all over her (if you are arfaird of creepy crawlies, you will know exactly what i mean)
But then to make it worse, the worms started moving! They were alive!
This is the first time that this has happened that I can think of but am not sure what to do next! She is feeling sick over this as she was about to cook...
Does anyone have any advise on what to do about this? Should I report them? make a formal complaint? I asked her to take pictures and a video if possible after trying to calm her down.

I wouldn't buy green beans at Tesco but only because they're usually flown in from Africa. It's not like we can't grow green beans in the UK.
As to the worms, well green beans grow in soil and soil also has worms. It's nature. Get a grip."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0 -

See my response above
Let me ask you something, if you were afraid of say spiders and then you opened something that you are about to cook to eat only to find spiders crawling out of it, what would your reaction to that be?Whatever You're Into, Get Into Shisha0 -
I hate to burst your bubble OP but you can go ahead and blink the pound signs out of your eyes - you're not going to get a million pounds in compensation because there was a worm in your veg.
Sorry about that.0 -
Well I think it's disgusting they should be sorted from creepy crawlies before being packed - I can understand small bugs getting through but 2 worms that is foul. If it was me I wouldn't be able to eat any dinner now I am really funny about worms and maggots etc etc... I would def make a complaint x0

Is it? By whom? Does it say that on the (inevitable) packet?"If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0 -
I don't think the OP is expecting millions but a little sorry gesture by Tesco would be nice x0
