Is it possible for a child to get worms from eating a lot of bread?

Question

Someone told me not to let my son eat a lot of bread because he could get worms. I ate bread when I was little and I never got worms.

Nobody I know, has ever had worms.

Answer 1

Where would these worms come from? I bake bread every 4 days or so and I've never seen a worm in the flour, in the dough or in the baked bread. There are no preservatives in it, and I've never seen a worm in bread that has sat out without refrigeration for a week.

Commercially-prepared bread is so packed with chemicals and preservatives that it's a wonder it even grows mold, let alone support a colony of worms.

Answer 2

I've never heard of that.  You can get worms by ingesting them or their eggs, but unless your bread is infested with them, I don't think it's going to happen.  

Answer 3

That is sooooo not true, that could only be possible if the bread was infested with them, which most bread isn't.
