I used to buy and eat organic brussel sprouts from Trader Joe's. Then one day, for some reason, I decided to take a closer look, and found a little green worm crawling about. After removing it, I found another, and another, until I lost both the count and my appetite.
I read that it's normal for brussel sprouts to have these kinds of worms in them, so I must have eaten lots and lots of them. Shrugs, but I can't stand the sight of the worms, so I have never bought brussel sprouts, anywhere, ever since.
I still eat them at restaurants. But only if they're fried or grilled, because that decreases the chances that I'll see a worm.
Unfortunately thanks to this article I'll probably avoid dried figs now because I can't disassociate the visuals.
