    I've figured how to help my health issue - become a zoology student and that should put an end to my compulsive eating. Cheers all! :D

  • I wouldnt worry about it. Chances are everyone who eats fish has eaten one of these worms in the past and if the OP has only just noticed them who's to say they weren't in the fish she's had in the past? They won't do you any harm and as they live on fish you won't be able to taste them either.

    Exactly. Who knows what people would do if someone were to tell them they have worms living in their guts right now.
    It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.

    lol Parasitic worms don't just live in the guts ;) They can infect most parts of the body including the eyes and skin. They are much more prevalent than people like to think :o

    I took some cod out of the freezer yesterday and there were 3 brownish small thin worm type things in it (dead obviously!).:eek:

    At first I thought they must be insides of the fish, but now I'm not sure. Does anyone know what thery were??

    Many thanks
    OMG - this is my first time visiting this site. I don't want to eat fish ever again - yuck. I need to find another source of protien. Are there such worms in aardvark?

    Now lets see ...

    Fisherman goes out to catch a fish .. what does he use ?

    Bait .... what bait ?

    Worms !!


    Why .. because fish like to eat worms therfore man with worms catches fish.

    Why would we complain about fish containing worms ?

    Have you ever seen what your pork chop eats ....
    One reason I don't like pork plus my biology lesson at school did it for me too:eek:
