Lol, thats nothing, I saw a Maggot on the bin lid once (when we had metal dustbins), I ran into the house screaming like a girl, straight upstairs to have a hot bath. I was about 25 at the time. As you can imagine, I would be no good at fishing

Thats shocking.. Im not a fan of spiders mind,thats cos they are fast

Its funny, Spiders and Mice dont bother me, although I HATE flies in the house (disgusting things), so dont mind the odd house spider making a meal out of them.

I bought a pack of 'washed' salad thinking 'oh it's washed I can eat this on the go' - but no, there was all little greenflies all over it. There always is, 'washed' or not - I wash all fruit/veg I buy now.

I really, REALLY hope you said that in a Marjorie Dawes voice

I've no idea what long beans are but I scrutinise peas every time I eat them since my mum's friend found a caterpillar in a tin of them and caterpillars are the entire reason I never eat lettuce too

I've got some advice, get a life! - and stop taking the micky out of people.

Thanks for the advice which I shall file where I usually put such rubbish, now why don't you get a sense of humour transplant and stop being so serious and wimpish about a couple of bugs, it is you that needs to get a life not me.

I'd be happy about the worms, it's a sign that the beans aren't covered in pesticides. Oh, and I'd wash the beans first. Tesco would apologise I'm sure, but I think your apology would come from someone who really didn't give a hoot.

the odd bug in fruit & veg I would be fine about. Had a caterpillar type thing in Mangetout before and an earwig inside a peach. Unpleasant but to be expected.

Its when you get the nasties in processed foods I would complain. I had a worm in a loaf of bread once...urgh

Oh you lot are cruel:D This has to be one of the funniest threads I have read in ages and I have been laughing like a loon reading it (despite feeling a bit guilty at laughing at the Ops expense).

I do so agree that it seems we have lost touch entirely with how food is grown (or some of us have anyway), that's sad.

Marley mate, I'd second the opinion that you are a big girls blouse;):D

It reminds me of when my Sister found a Slug in a cabbage. She has never had Cabbage since (A good 30 Years later).

My worst moment was an Orange, I normally peeled and ate Oranges, but this particular day I decided to cut it in half, calling my mother over to enquire what these things were in the Orange.....a family of Grubs nestled in the heart of the Orange. I have always dissected all Fruit since that day.

I once bought some peaches and all night my cat was fascinated by one of them.
She sat looking at it and tilting her head back and forward as if she was listening to something.
When I went to get a peach the next day for my daughter she bit bit into it and a huge flying thing about an inch and a half long flew out.
She's never touched peaches since.
It looked like a giant weevil and had eaten all the peach stone away during it's time in the side the peach.
I always cut them up nowadays :eek:
