Re: Salt Water Soak Reveals Hidden White Maggots In Your Strawberries
A TikTok phenomenon has exposed a little-known fly known as the spotted wing drosophila. After it lays eggs inside strawberries, they hatch and crawl out of strawberries when washed in warm salt water for around a half-hour.

It’s a gross sight: a little white maggot writhing on an otherwise-pristine strawberry.

Oh ffs, there is insect larvae in all fruits we eat unless they have been treated heavily with lots of insecticides. I personally eat a lot of seasonal fruit like strawberries, raspberries, apricots, apples, pears, cherries etc. I like the taste, I know it's healthy, and I certainly do not mind the insect larvae inside.

My cat was a normal weight & active until I wormed him. Now he's really fat and lazy.

Maybe worms aren't all bad.
I have heard some people with autoimmune urticaria have went to Africa just to get hookworms by walking barefoot around latrine areas. Once they get hookworms they are cured.

anybody here eat figs? figs are fertilized by a type of wasp and basically figs have wasp parts inside.

If you eat anything with figs in 100% you are eating mashed up wasps.

In fairness its a specific type of wasp (the fig wasp), not the common looking wasp. It kind of looks like a mosquito/wasp looking thing.

There goes the strawberry industry! Unless you wanna eat the pesticides they are now going to load them down with so that all you weak fools don't have to risk ingesting a couple of little worms here & there.

If that is how afraid you are of eating something like that, you may as well go on hunger strike now because if you knew every little thing that goes into your pie hole, you'd clearly never eat again!

Strawberries already have one of the highest usage of pesticides and one of the highest residue levels of them. They have been found to have 20 different pesticides on a single strawberry.
