OMG!
I've just had the most brain damaging experience! I'm a real pain in the butt fussy eater (as Linda would happily confirm!) but I've always enjoyed fresh white fish since a wee lass (I'm from Scotland originally b.t.w!!). Tonight, I bought myself a yummy fillet of smoked cod, skinned, boned, etc. Placed some butter on top, wrapped it in foil, cooked for 25mins - looked/smelt divine! I then proceeded to tuck in, not really paying too much attention, as I was watching the telly. Then I spotted something "not right". It was a WORM! Yep - you read right - a frigging worm! :sign0137:
After throwing-up what I had already eaten (not through choice - it just happened!), I searched on Google to find out more. It's apparently extremely common in all white fish (great - just what I need to know) and completely harmless if cooked thoroughly. That doesn't help my brain out :sigh:. After reading several articles on the subject in the last half hour, its occurred to me, that I may well have consumed these critters in the past, and been completely oblivious to it - eeeuurrgh! How gross!
Have contacted the supermarket, who really are only obliged to offer a refund and/or replacement. They said to call back in the morning when Customer Services were open to discuss further.
Since starting to type this, my other half has come in from work, finds it a bit gross, but incredibly funny at my over-reaction!!!!
