For those that don’t know Australians chop up strawberries as a precautionary measure due to a widespread food safety crisis in September 2018, when sewing needles were found hidden inside them. Following reports of needles, health officials advised the public to cut up strawberries before eating them to check for foreign objects. This advice, combined with the psychological impact of the scare, led many to continue the practice of chopping strawberries, even after the initial incident was resolved. 😳😰

If you soak strawberries and salty water you'll see little worms poke out the skin and come to the surface

Look it up see how much bug matter and feces. They allow to be consumed by us that they allowed to be processed in with our food. It’s crazy and cockroach. It’s not look it up.

The original 2018 crisis: In September 2018, a wave of contamination incidents occurred where sewing needles were discovered in strawberries sold in supermarkets across Australia.

No one brings this up but many countries, especially Mexico/S. America, put raw, untreated sewer waste directly on the fields. This leaves you open to Giardia and other gross bacterial infections.

i occasionally but canned but prefer fresh. It is 💯 though, that FDA permits a certain percentage of bug bites to be passed in canned veggies. One of many reasons I prefer fresh lol! (veggies not bugs lol) 😆🥰

Strawberry wolf spider they don’t enter the fruit they use the fruit itself to hide and attract insects to eat

My dad used to dry out red ants in his sister’s jewelry box as a kid and snack on them 🤣 apparently dried red ants taste like sweet tarts. Whoda thunk it? 🤣

Once, at Golden Corral in Joplin, Missouri, I ate a couple of strawberries. On my third one, I noticed teeny tiny bugs crawling all over it. I nearly lost it by knowing the first two would have had them as well. 🤢 I have not eaten a strawberry elsewhere since!

WTF? We all know everything in Australia wants to kill you. Afraid of strawberries? Was she expecting a giant huntsman spider to come out?
