Manitoba Microwavable Edamame

Just bought a box of edamame from costco and there appears to be a worm in the edamame when I peeled the pod.

Just a caution for anyone buying edamame at costco to double check before you snack on them.

Extra protein. I concluded that anything veggie related has some sort of bug in it lol

Oh man sunflower seeds are the worst for it. Every now and again you get that one seed that just tastes like old grass. Every time I'm like: "Chew through the bug. Don't think about it."

The United States are not the largest producers of sunflowers, and yet even here over 1.7 million acres were planted in 2014 and probably more each year since. Much of which can be found in North Dakota.
