Show it anywayDid OP not wash her lettuce thoroughly first?....
Poor caterpillar, he was so young!
What protein? It's not even bigger than the caterpillar.
Nothing like a caterpillar added to your lettuce. Makes it crispier.
Hahaha that's tasty
Pesticide really isn't good for humans..
A home grown garden sounds lovely. Pesticides are the LAST thing you want. Nothing wrong with a couple of caterpillars, OP just needs to give things a once over before shoving them in her mouth
Actually, I saw something similar in that show, Monsters Inside Me (not a **** parody,lol) and the guy had taken a bite of a snail(not the african snail) that was embedded in his home grown vegetables and contracted a weird brain disease that almost killed him... so yeap, I would think about finding a way to rid his stuff of bugs.
But again, that's not because snails were just around the garden, it's because HE ATE THE FREAKING SNAIL. Which wouldn't happen if he had actually looked at the cabbage and made sure there weren't bugs still on it before shoving it in his mouth.
They're not as bad as slugs so you're good for once
so, out of the two...caterpillar and slug, what would you have chosen to bite? I, personally, neither.
that's why we wash vegetables
What if he did wash it? How's that gonna remove the caterpillar from the inside?
Yeah it was my job as kid to pick and wash the veges in our gardens, 6 years of doing that and not a single critter was harmed
a couple spoons of vinegar. the occasional caterpillar/slug/snail will come right off.
If you were a vegetarian you just broke that streak lol

Every good salad needs a bit of protein ;)
