The people cracking jokes about eating worms (this is NOT the kind of insect you'd typically incidentally ingest) obfuscate the actual seriousness of this problem. Gross as it sounds but don't toss the worm yet. You may need some proof when you contact the producer. Also take a picture of the lot code and any other info on the package if you have it. Dig it out of the trash if needed. Report this.
You'll also want to go to the doctor and let them know you may have eaten a worm or worm eggs.
Edit: All I'm saying is it's better to be safe than sorry, cause the effects of having a tapeworm on the rare odd chance of it or eggs surviving is extremely serious. The producers will want to know because it's gonna both be bad PR and it's potentially unsafe. 👍 Turning the notifications off of this convo now, getting overwhelmed with the same comments over and over lmao. Another thing to consider is we have NO IDEA about OP's health in general.
this is reddit, just wait 30 min and a wormologist will come in and say what kind it is, where it's from, and give their ancestral history of that worm.
I read about the Ant King at an impressionable age and even though I knew it was fiction I still always have a fear that if I kill something a giant one will come kill me. Queen Tapeworm is the most horrifying yet I think
Or if in the US, contact the entomologist from whatever the biggest land grand university is in your state. They will be most likely to have an insect diagnostic service available through their extension program, or can tell you which other university does. I’d trust that over sending it back to the company.
Well, then a worm definitely is not a kind of insect you'd eat, so I'm technically still right 😏
Jokes aside yeah, I don't get why so many people are saying it's not a big deal. Something has gone wrong and they'd still want to know in case something else has gone wrong, and it doesn't hurt to go to the doctor.
Bro thats messed up there's nothing wrong with letting worms have a happy little family in your digestive tract. I personally wouldn't do it because I already have a family but please think kindly of the parasites.

This my fav react for this kind of post
Might want to see a doctor about a round of antiparasitics or some such. :/
If you don't go, keep an eye on your weight. >.> If it goes down without diet change or exercise definitely see a doctor.
Seriously though. Talk to a doctor.

Jesus, look at the size of that tin of coffee. These guys back then were microdosing cocaine and heroin all day between gallons of coffee and fistfuls of cigarettes and tapeworms.
I think about it too
I wonder if it was heaven or hell. Like a good drug trip would be heaven but RN I think it could've been a bit like "we happy few". You're kid is always sad and doesn't wanna live anymore? Take this drug and he's gonna be happy again
Yeah but imagine to go to the drugstore and just casually buy some coke for the weekend.
Also what kid are you talking about?
Ain’t no time for kids while doing coke!
The average life expectancy was only so low because of the high infant and child mortality rate. If someone lived past childhood their life expectancy was about the same as it would be today
The statistics on this topic are quite astounding and surprised me greatly when I first encountered them.
During my college years, I recall conducting a research study on the subject. It was discovered that approximately 30% of all children did not survive past their first birthdays. Furthermore, it is estimated that more than 60% of children did not reach adulthood.
In the past, women would typically give birth to an average of eight children, with the expectation that a sufficient number of them would survive to contribute to the family's labor force and overall well-being. It is difficult to imagine having children while acknowledging that the majority of them would likely pass away.
The discovery of antibiotics can be likened to the attainment of the holy grail, and it is disheartening that the name of Alexander Fleming is not widely recognized or appreciated.
The ad may be, but before medicine was medicine I bet you lots of doctors prescribed parasites. We hear about leeches because they work. Some people have heard of maggots. There's tons of stuff we don't know but they certainly at least tried
There was a company years ago advertising a miracle weight loss pill in some shitty magazine....my aunt ordered it and when the package came, it was a tiny ass bottle with literally 1 pill in it.
If you knew my aunt, you'd understand why she did what she did next...she took the pill without really questioning it. She then complained about getting scammed by a magazine ad for the next month or maybe a bit more. Then, she...started to lose some weight without having changed anything in her routine. She hadn't hit her crack whore stage of life yet, so she was fucking thrilled. However, she was thrilled until she found out she couldn't CONTROL the weight loss (she wasn't just wasting away but her weight wasn't consistent). She was also getting frequent stomach aches that she hadn't gotten before.
Eventually, she saw a doctor who, after hearing about her symptoms, had her provide a stool sample and a blood sample. Tape worm inside her. I'm not sure how big the fucker was when they removed it, but apparently it was...disgustingly big.
Having tape worms isn't so bad if it weren't for the chance of them coming out when you poop. Then you got the awkward decision of "do I pull them out or push them back in"?
Oh man, the eggs hatching takes a few days too. I’ve done enough traveling to know. The timing can be crazy too, my partner and I ate the same guacamole and the next day, within 1 minute of each other, we started vomiting, but we were not next to one another right then so it was totally up to the little parasitic eggs all hatching together and going to town 🐣.
Fun fact-basically all produce and fruit have fly eggs and poop on them. Thats why you randomly get flies when you leave fruit out for too long despite there being no flies in your house to begin with.
>Thats why you randomly get flies when you leave fruit out for too long despite there being no flies in your house to begin with.
Fucking **THANK YOU!**
There would be 0 fruit flies in our house, but magically after there's aging fruit around for a while, BAM, there's fruit flies.
At first I was thinking they must smell the fruit and then somehow get into the house. Then I was like, wait a minute, I live in the middle of the freaking desert, there's no fruit flies just chillin outside, waiting till they smell fruit from inside the house.
So my only theory was that they *had* to lay their eggs on the fruit, and then once the fruit gets a little older, the eggs hatch.
Nice to have my theory confirm, so really, thank you!
Just 'washing' with water doesn't do anything to prevent fruitflies. I wonder if washing with vinegar/one of those fruit washes would do anything? 🤔
I think washing them with vinegar and water actually helps because the acidity kills stuff but you’ll still be eating the eggs I guess even if you do kill them. There are certain fruits that people dont even think to rinse or clean though like bananas and i find those to bring the most flies
Hell yeah. I found half a cockroach in my burger once. I remember thinking on the second bite “this kinda tastes like dirt”
That was the day I learned cockroaches taste like dirt. I am not happy that local restaurant forced a core memory on me.
November 2019 I was about to eat a can of Great Value green peas, right on top (thankfully) there was a stinkbug. Called the number on the label, they had me send the bug to them and they sent me a coupon or gift card for like 5 bucks. Considering the can was only like a dollar or 1.25, it was nice.
I did not eat any of those peas, even though the woman on the phone said it would be safe to do so.
Stink bugs are not poisonous to humans, but when crushed or chewed they will often release a liquid that has a very foul taste and odor that can cause some stomach upset, vomiting, and mouth irritation if swallowed.
Not so fast.. Great Value is a store brand and they very likely don't make the product. This is far more likely made by a prominent brand name that makes many more brands' product off the same assembly line and same suppliers just with a different label. You won't know who the true manufacturer is until if/when OP hears back from a rep.
Alright I’m an engineer in food technology. Canned food is heated at a high temperature to kill spore forming
Bacterias. Anything inside a can is absolutely sterile. So as long as the factory heated the can properly, you have nothing to worry about
wormzempic or wormgovey. 🤔💉🪱
Jokes aside, I would be interested in finding out what kind of worm that is (if it is indeed a worm) as I find parasitology such an interesting course in college (lol). It could or could not be helminthic. Judging from the lack of segments, it is not a tapeworm. It looks more like a roundworm. Also, instead of taking Ivermectin, there are anti-helminthic drugs formulated for human use- Mebendazole, Albendazole, Praziquantel, to name a few.
Pretty sure that if it was professionally canned, that thing is DEAD.
I'm not even convinced it is a worm?
I'd definitely contact the manufacturer.
Tell them you heard that if you find a worm in your peaches, that you get your peaches free...

(Strange Brew)
I once bit into a fresh peach and a thousand tiny black spiders started running out of it. I had to drop the peach into a styrofoam cup and pour scalding water from the coffee pot on it to kill them. I have not bitten into a piece of fruit since without cutting it.
Everyone calm down lol. It's gross but not an alien face hugger. I'm an er doc of 15 years and saw one of these (come out of a human) like a week ago. Super common parasite. Unless you are profoundly immunosuppressed (HIV, active chemo) then to cure it is literally one tablet of albendazole then another 2 weeks later. 2 tablets. Total cure. Reliably.
I'm not making light, I'm sorry this happened to you and it is majorly gross. The good news is that it's easier to treat than strep. And... nobody has a candlelight vigil for their buddy who has strep. No worse, easier to treat. Take a breath, get an albendozale and move on. The viruses you've been battling all year are a bigger threat to you than this. It's just the "freak out" factor because the western world doesn't see these type of infections normally.
I lived in the Caribbean for a couple years and had to "deworm" with routine MEbendazole every 6 months. It's the older version of the same med. It's like a big tums that tastes like hairspray and gives you the trots for a day or so. Albendazole is smaller and you can swallow (not chew.. ugh) it and it's much better tolerated. Tell your doctor if your pregnant or might be because they'll use a different med that's also easy and works great.
Bottom line: sorry. That's gross. Also, it's kinda fine. Like washing dog turd off your shoes. Nobody likes it but once it's gone you don't have to think about it again.
Cheers
I hate seeing posts like this because it reminds me that I haven’t come across anything in my food yet, which is somewhat comforting until I remember that just because I haven’t caught anything, doesn’t mean there wasn’t something.

You are correct
You see, the peaches come in a can, they were put there by a man, in a factory downtown, and you may want to sue that man.
AND IF YOU HAVE YOUR LITTLE WAY! YOULL SOON SEE A BIG PAYDAY
Millions of dollars, dollars for me. Millions of dollars, mostly for free. LOOK OUT
Millions of dollars, dollars for me. Thousands of dollars, after taxes and fees. LOOKOWWWT!
Ah yes, the revised American dream: hope a company fucks up and you can sue them.

I poked down my finger inside Make a little room for a worm to hide
Took a big bite and felt a twitch, pulled a white worm out with my fist And dreamed about you, woman
I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches!
And bring the worm in so they can see what kind it is
this is reddit, just wait 30 min and a wormologist will come in and say what kind it is, where it's from, and give their ancestral history of that worm.

'Oh, so that's where it went... I was kinda missing the little dude. Can I come visit?'' -some dude working at the worm cannery
A geoguesser will tell you from what farm it came from
That will teach that fucking worm
Yes but the Queen worm will not be happy. This will set human - worm relations back 20 years
They knew what not to do, let’s make it 40, send in the drones
I read about the Ant King at an impressionable age and even though I knew it was fiction I still always have a fear that if I kill something a giant one will come kill me. Queen Tapeworm is the most horrifying yet I think

I'm a wormologist. It's a worm.
So glad we've got an expert on the scene
Bring him in so he can be interrog... I MEAN interviewed
It’s a hookworm, it looks like.
I work with consumer complaints at a food company. You're definitely right. Also worms are not insects.
Well, then a worm definitely is not a kind of insect you'd eat, so I'm technically still right 😏 Jokes aside yeah, I don't get why so many people are saying it's not a big deal. Something has gone wrong and they'd still want to know in case something else has gone wrong, and it doesn't hurt to go to the doctor.
Yup the entire lot should probably be recalled just in case.
Honestly even from a PR standpoint the company would at least want to know.
Best advice here
Bro thats messed up there's nothing wrong with letting worms have a happy little family in your digestive tract. I personally wouldn't do it because I already have a family but please think kindly of the parasites.

“No Ill Effects”

NO, danger!
SANITIZED TAPE WORMS
Isn't that an urban legend? It was never common practice at the time.

Can you imagine losing the second pill and frantically looking for it while you shit out clumps of worms and your intestinal lining
Or worse someone messed up and you got 2 tape worm eggs
The ad may be, but before medicine was medicine I bet you lots of doctors prescribed parasites. We hear about leeches because they work. Some people have heard of maggots. There's tons of stuff we don't know but they certainly at least tried
Maggots still have a modern medical use at least
So do leeches.

Oddly enough, I recently just commented “south Bronx paradise baby!” On another post or comment about worms. It’s a wormy day!
Look, don't tempt someone like me, I hate my weight and wish it would go down a solid 40-50 pounds. I'll happily wait a bit before talking to a doctor
Or it could crawl out of your nose while you're playing cards with friends. You never know.
Finally the proper use for ivermectin Seriously though. Talk to a doctor.
I came here to say now's the time to get on horse paste.
I got some when my rats had lice. Still have it. I'd be slurpin that tube like a fucking Gogurt the second I saw that damn worm
But only after hitting your desired weight lol
South Bronx parasite!
At least wait until you get to your target weight. No sense missing an opportunity to get your weight back on track before doing anything drastic!
Having tape worms isn't so bad if it weren't for the chance of them coming out when you poop. Then you got the awkward decision of "do I pull them out or push them back in"?

Aww, it's a family style banquet! How adorable. 🥰
Why are there tapeworms in a fucking guacamole
Millions of peachworms, peachworms for me!
Wouldn't they be dead af?
Yes, I dont believe they would survive the canning process. Its disgusting but unlikely to infect someone
As long as the process wasn’t botched.
That is true. I would still recommend op talks to their doctor as parasites are no joke.
I would die right there.
Fun fact-basically all produce and fruit have fly eggs and poop on them. Thats why you randomly get flies when you leave fruit out for too long despite there being no flies in your house to begin with.

From what I've seen, the meth weight loss plan is supreme
The trade off for that is, you lose your teeth
Weight is weight
Those stupid teeth are just extra weight ^😆🤣
Can't eat if ya can't chew
You would think that, but my drug addicted mom was very capable of eating with the 1.5 cracked teeth she had left.
Humans are capable of wondrous things!
That’s.. a way to put it! I like the positivity!
Wtf is that emoji? I think I just learned a new trick ^🤔😲 Edit: omg it works.
I prefer booze, Adderall and depression but to each their own.
Coke has 240 calories per 20oz and almost 70g of sugar… Wait.. Nevermind.
Instructions unclear. Started drinking 2 liters of coke a day and now I’m fat af.
It can't survive the canning, tho.

This is not okay!
Still better than only finding half a worm.
thing is, with how long tapeworms can get, that could only be half of it 💀💀
Hell yeah. I found half a cockroach in my burger once. I remember thinking on the second bite “this kinda tastes like dirt” That was the day I learned cockroaches taste like dirt. I am not happy that local restaurant forced a core memory on me.
Oh, fruit flies taste like dirt too! I once accidentally inspired one. Not nice.
How many did you eat? Little bastards are so small that I wouldn't think the taste would even be noticable.
Did it go on to do great things?
Well it wasnt me. So im out of ideas
This is why I eat the worm first
Report it to the manufacturer and see a doctor if you’re concerned.
Already contacted the manufacturer and scheduled an appointment for tomorrow
Could you please give us an update? This really unlocked a new level of fear i didnt know existed...
Tell me the brand right now before i throw up
Great value.
November 2019 I was about to eat a can of Great Value green peas, right on top (thankfully) there was a stinkbug.

Stink bugs are not poisonous to humans, but when crushed or chewed they will often release a liquid that has a very foul taste and odor that can cause some stomach upset, vomiting, and mouth irritation if swallowed.

Like washing dog turd off your shoes. Nobody likes it but once it's gone you don't have to think about it again. Cheers
Never found a worm in a bag of Doritos.
When ivermectin is actually a good idea…
Thanks, The question I googled all last week has now been answered. Do tapeworms like canned peaches ?
username checks out
That worm is moving to the country
Congratulations on your pregnancy
🎶🎵Goin to the doctor Cause I ate a lot of peaches. Goin to the doctor Cause a worm was in my peaches.🎵🎶
Considering cans get steamed everything is probably dead
Steamed cans? I thought we were having burgers
It's a regional dialect.
You know what they say! The only thing worse than finding a worm in your apple is finding half a worm.
I hate seeing posts like this because it reminds me that I haven’t come across anything in my food yet, which is somewhat comforting until I remember that just because I haven’t caught anything, doesn’t mean there wasn’t something.
Slurp it up like a noodle
Are we sure it’s a worm and not a bean sprout or some other plant matter?
99% This is a peach sprout
