I remember when I was little I found a worm in an apple that I was eating. I was pretty grossed out about it. I wound up throwing the apple away because of it. I know that's wasting but hey I was freaked out by the worm. Have you ever found a worm in an apple before?

I have been lucky enough to never find a worm in an apple that I was actually eating, but I have seen worms in apples before. Fortunately I saw them before I started to eat it. That is part of the reason why I usually cut my apple up before eating it.

Not for many, many years. All fruit is sprayed with poisonous insecticides. I wash apples thoroughly before consuming them. The only really safe fruit is those inside a skin like papaya or bananas or oranges. I do have vivid memories as a child though seeing worms in apples. I think we just threw out that part and ate the rest! I don't think that I coul ddo it now though

I've found lots of worms in apples and usually if I find it after I've taken a bite can't eat another bite for weeks after. I am really good about checking for worm holes first though so very rarely happens to me now.

um..not that i recall,as far as store bought apples.
a friend of mine did have apple trees in her yard though,if the fruit hit the ground it'd have worms in it.

no but in an ear of corn I saw one this year at the grocery store. I had not seen a worm in a ear of corn since I was a kid and it still is a lil gross even as an adult... yes I did reject that ear of corn!
