what ARE these little worms riding on raspberries?
When I pick a batch of raspberries from the garden I give them a quick rinse in water before freezing them. Invariably there are several small white worms in the rinse water. What are those? Larva of fruit flies? Or what? They gross me out.
That my produce has not been sprayed with pesticides!
The FDA has regulations on how much insect "protein" can legally be in packaged foods... I expect humans eat far more of the little critters than we know.
All sorts of grubs appear in the organic garden. Still not as gross as nasty insecticide. Alas all of my berries were devoured by Mother Gaea's winged children and I never got to wash them. Perhaps next year we will try flowers instead...
