Better than finding half a cricket...

Jul 23, 2009 09:09

For breakfast, I made some oatmeal with spinach. While I was eating it, I found what appears to be a whole, undamaged cricket. Now, it's true that even the FDA considers some level of contamination by insect parts or rodent filth to be unavoidable, but their rule for spinach talks in terms of insects larger or smaller than 3mm, and this thing is close to 3 centimeters.

1) Is this a normal kind of thing that I shouldn't be squeamish about, or should I return the spinach and ask for a refund?

2) If the spinach was organic, does that mean it's probably safe to eat the cricket?

food, questions, gross
