What do I do to verify what looks to be worms in my sliced beef tv dinner?

Question

I want to verify it so I can be sure before contacting the maker.. and others need to be aware of this.. it makes me sick to think about it! I kept the box and put the meal back in it.. I had microwaved it for my lunch.

Answer 1

take pics of it, to show others and to keep as evidence.

Answer 2

Buy another box and check. You can take it to a bait and tackle shop to see if it is worms. But otherwise I would just call the maker and tell them that there is something "unidentified" in the meal. Describe what it looks like to them. If they can tell you what it is, your fine. But if they don't even know what it is. yeah... don't eat it.

what brand is it anyways?

Answer 3

Very unlikely in a frozen product. Return it to the market for a refund if you're unsure.

Answer 4

take pictures and then contact the makers with the pictures... tell them that you believe there are worms in your food.

Answer 5

omg!  eewww  well, i WAS hungry.

thanks for helping to control my appetite.

Answer 6

I think you have already verified it.  If it looks like worms and you know it should not be in there, then it is probably worms.  Contact the maker if possible and demand some form of reimbursement.  I would be pissed off.  That is gross.

Answer 7

Why would you want to "verify" it?  Throw it out - if there are worms sweetheart that means it's not good to eat.
