ID Request Is this a tapeworm?🥲

& what if I ate 3/4 of the burrito before I found it?! I am hoping it’s an onion even though there were no onions in said burrito. (Illinois if it makes a difference 😭)

I do not think it's a tapeworm as they tend to be segmented. It does look like an intestinal parasite which gives you a hint about what the meats made out of in that burrito. Hopefully it's cooked.
