A worm in my box of rice - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Kay Scarpetta · 08-03-2005, 06:25 PM

...ew?

I opened a box of rice as part of my dinner. I dumped it into the frying pan, then lo and behold, I see this brown thing against the contrast of the white. It's an inch long worm. And to make it 84 times worse, it's ALIVE.

Anyone else find any foreign objects in their food lately?

Was this from a new box or a box that had been previously opened?

I had that happen to my Ramen Noodle soup once. I was so bummed.

This is why you should eat grits instead

It can happen with any grain. Just be glad you can see to find them.

EWWWWW. *shudder* You just managed to give me goosebumps!

I hope you threw out that batch and opened up a new batch.

TJL · 08-03-2005, 07:55 PM

Just for future reference, what brand was it?

Penny Lane · 08-03-2005, 08:15 PM

Yeah, I have had wormy dry foods.
I always freeze my flour and corn meal because I don't use them up fast enough. As long as I freeze that stuff I don't get worms!

EmoJoe · 08-03-2005, 08:17 PM
