Depending on my frame of mind this usually isn't something I find particularly disgusting. |

Growing up on a farm, this was a regular occurrence. Ahh, happy hours spent picking the worms out of corn before cooking it... |

Pistachios are too small to eat around the worm. |

About a week ago, I had a head of cauliflower in the fridge that I was breaking pieces from as I wanted them. When I go to the last piece, I found a little worm curled up on a piece of cauliflower... when I poked him, he woke up and stretched. :) I wasn't disgusted, I was upset that I might have eaten and murdered when of his little friends... I set him free outside. So I'm not sure any of these options fit me except for other. |

I loved the not sure option.
I'd cut them out in advance. If i dicovered one after i took a bite, i'd toss the whole thing in disgust. |

As a teenager, i was an actor in the Rennaissance Faire, part of a sixteenth century scottish clan. My friend & I had a an act we started on accident involving eating grapes covered with ants. They taste like pepper. I didn't find it nearly as sickening as eating live oysters on the half shell. |

There is a plum tree in my garden and the plums often have maggots in them!!! |

um yum. makes me want a garden.
I once made iridescent dragonfly christmas ornaments and sent one to a dear friend packed in styrofoam peanuts in some kind of snack box. He wrote back, "thanks for the snacks, but by the time they arrived, they were rather stale and harbored a large bug." |

I unfolded a bug once. |

When I was 24 it was 135, partially 160 (abstract and visual reasoning), partially 100 (timed reading comprehension). I feel much much brighter having done some really amazing things since then. At the time I was wondering why tests took me so long in college. |

I've found corn borers in my corn. Fortunately, since you boil corn, you boil the borers too. I now try to look for their hiding spots before I cook, and dig 'em out with a knife. |

Fortunately, I've never seen a corn borer, since I much prefer my corn raw. |

Jas: In this case, I think 'never seen' is the opposite of 'never eaten'. |
| Jasmine | | posted 19-Aug-1999 5:11pm |
lol You're saying I rightfully checked the 'Not sure' option. I've never even heard of them before. Perhaps Nebraska sends us the pure stuff, just like we get Washintons best apples, and send our best strawberries to Egypt, and our oranges to Florida, who send us theirs.
What do they look like? |

I took a drink out of a can of soda that had a bee in it, then I had a bee in my mouth. It was only there for a fraction of a second, as I spit out the entire contents of my mouth over everything that was near me. |
| Jasmine | | posted 19-Aug-1999 5:41pm |
For shame. We'll have to let everyone know about that. ;) |
| mandy | | posted 19-Aug-1999 6:49pm |
Was the bee living or deceased at the time of oral contact? |
| they | | posted 19-Aug-1999 11:50pm |
Poor little bee. :( |
| bill | | posted 20-Aug-1999 7:47am |
living, and I didn't kill it. No bees were harmed, I swear it. He just got a little ride out of it. |

Dead fly in my salad, live green bug in my salad...I often find cat hair in the food I cook, but that doesn't bother me. If I think about this too much, I would never eat again. |

When i was a teen, co-piloting with my ride to the Renn Faire, i inquired about all the hair i was loading into the pipe. She said her dog got into her stash, and she had to pick it out of his beard and from between his toes. |

***BUZZZZ*** "Hey guys, You should go on the ~Big Guy's Mouth~ next...it rocks!!!!!" |
