The various reports on the strange and disgusting presence of worms in different foods that we consume every day are more and more frequent and this time the food in question, the one contaminated with floating worms, is the much appreciated tomato sauce. Strange animals have been found inside two boxes of wrapped tomato sauce purchased from the supermarket. The report came from a boy named Dario who, as soon as he opened a can of tomato sauce to season his pasta dish and poured out the contents, immediately noticed the strange presence of small white particles that he didn’t couldn’t even fully identify.
The boy first thought it might just be residue from the ribs inside the tomato which, even when mixed, had then remained intact and very small. Inside the two purchased cans, however, Dario found several and none of the small particles moved, indeed they had a very hard consistency between his fingers, which made him change his mind, making him think that they weren’t. were not food in nature at all.
After taking the photo and writing a report, the boy decided to send the e-mail to the manufacturer who could therefore analyze the situation well in order to understand what it was really about. The company, after taking some time to carry out the necessary checks, responded to the consumer by noting that he had shown this photograph which he had sent to an expert in the sector who immediately understood the true nature of the white fragment and with a solid consistency. According to the expert, there was in fact no doubt: this strange presence was nothing more than the remains of a germ or a sprouted seed, which is sometimes found inside the tomato when the raw material is collected at a high level of maturation.
As it is a tomato sauce, it may therefore happen to find some sprouted seeds inside the box that are still whole.
