I just ate around a bug..

...in my salad.

Aren't you happy I shared? ;D

He was actually in the corner, resting under a small leaf of lettuce. I removed him, and continued on with the other side of the salad.

What? Why?

[Roc A Bee]

what kind of bug?

[Deleted]

I found a live ladybug in my salad once.

I asked for a new salad.

[roadhead]

I'm with you, CloudBee. I would have done the same thing. Unless it was a slug

[CloudBee]

It wasn't a live bug. It was what appeared to be a very small fruit fly.

I posted because I feel a little alarmed by what I did. However, it was all I had to eat. If I called to ask about having a replacement delivered, it would likely have taken an hour or so, as it's the lunch rush hour around here. I was starving!

lol

For some reason, the only way this would gross me out is if it were a roach.

All other bugs are apparently okay in my book.

Didn't know that about myself. Hmmm....

You should have just ate him and went for the extra protein. While I do think in general eating bugs is gross, we probably eat them all the time without realizing it. So to me eating around a bug is no big deal. Is being dead in your salad is it any worse than a fly landing on your salad while eating outside?

[agnes]

I prolly would have done the same

Lettuce is grown outside, in the dirt. Bugs crawl all over your vegetables before you eat them. NBD!
