[Closed] Insects in the broccoli (survey)

Does she think that all the other broccoli she's ever had has never had an insect crawl on it?

Happened to me too! Scared the life out of me. Looked like an earwig except it was bigger and ran at about 20mph (ish)

I ate it by the way. Why wouldn't you!?

I don't think it's a logical thing for her, currently. Plus the insects are actually in the pan floating about and potentially infusing the food with bugness.

😥

Did you wash that broccoli?

Careful now, you'll break the internet.

You should have seen some of the spiders we used to find in the bananas when i worked for Tesco.

If you've not eaten it by now it'll have gone cold.
I wouldn't fancy it re-heated, freshly cooked is always best.

We ate it.

Can insects be safely reheated?

Tick...I loaded up the Banana stand once and a few minutes later had a panicked customer report a spider to me. I got a plastic pot off the Deli, scooped it up and we all had a good look. Only about 20 or 30mm across but it was bright red. Manager told me we had to keep it in case there was any comeback, not wanting it to starve to death in its prison, we stuck it in one of the freezers out back, when we went back to check it looked very boring as it had lost all of its red colouring 🙁 Probably went into the compactor a few weeks later...

The legislation on bulk goods like flour etc isn't whether or not there are insects in it, but how many insects are allowed per ton. In other words, we can't avoid eating insects in our food.

Mongolian Death Beetle. If your tongue goes limp or you notice any bleeding from you eyes then give NHS 24 a call.

or move to the netherlands.

they don't grow veg in planet earth. they pretty much synthesise veg in lab conditions.
