Honestly - what would you have done?

I made a sandwich for lunch today. I had some nice roasted red peppers in a container in the fridge that I'd grilled on the BGE a few days ago. I guess when I washed them and then roasted them and then skinned them and then scraped the seeds out I failed to notice a worm. It looked just like a meal worm - about an inch long...but there it was roasted and dead and laying on top of the piece of roasted pepper on my sandwich.
What did I do? I picked it off, threw it away and ate and enjoyed the sandwich.
What would you have done?

waste of a good worm, in my booked egli avea del cul fatto trombetta -Dante
-
the worm followed by a shot of tequila and finish the sandwich :P
-
Yuck, I think you can guess what I would have done. :(
Now, if I find a nat in my beer I will pick it out and drink away.
Glad to hear you still enjoyed the sandwich.
Cheers,

Like stike said. If the worm was done to 120 it's a waste of some good protein
:P :P -
Ever bite into a sandwich outdoors and get a live bee in your mouth? Now THAT is a real treat. :pinch:
-
Same as you -- might have even eaten the worm. I don't like touching them so I might have gotten a little queasy picking it off with my fingers.
-
I am w/Bordello on this one (and the beer comment also :laugh:).
Glad you enjoyed your meal(worm) :woohoo: -
Got that from a beer one time OUCH. I drink faster now
-
Extra protein is always good, just add sauce.
-
What with all the starving children in the world you wasted a perfect, protein filled worm! :laugh:

Sometimes you just have to press on !!!
Made me think of something that happened a couple years back ... while cooking with some Shiitake mushrooms, Erin luckily noticed something strange ....
Do you see anything odd about this pile of mushrooms from the bag???
A closer look shows a cigarette butt that had been packaged in with them ... we'd already used mushrooms out of the bag for weeks ..... what would you do?
-
would rather eat the worm :laugh:fukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it
-
i would have been crushed if you had not said that..
-
Glad to have ya aboard. :laugh:
I used to hate that program on T.V. where they had to do all kinds of with or eat bugs. Yuck, I had to switch channels at times.

When I was 16 I got a shake made with rocky road ice cream so it had nuts in it. I'm kind of chewing on this thing, didn't feel right, it was a fly in my shake.
Cute girl had made it for me and I didn't have the heart to tell her, got rid of the fly and continued to drink the shake but it was very hard to do. :(
Bugs to ya :laugh:
Cheers,

YUK toss the mushrooms and eat the worm LOL

Hahahaha, could have been worse, you might have only found half the worm! One year I was restoring the family sailboat, a neglected 17' day sailor that I had bottom up under a huge Maple tree in the back yard. It had been unused and sat out behind the garage for a number of years full of leaves, someone had broken the mast and it was in rough shape. I was working hard to get it finished for fathers day so I could present it to my dad. I had a big mug of coffee that I was nursing one beautiful morning and as I reached the bottom of the cup I found a large (Robin sized) bird dropping waiting in the bottom of the mug. :blink:
LOL, I think I turned a few shades of green and then hoped that the worst was over with, and no I didn't finish the coffee.

I have known since college that you are supposed to eat the worm. :evil: :woohoo:
-
eat the worm...and buy one of those I ate the worm T-shirts.
-
the consensus agrees...next time eat the worm too.
The worst case like this that I've had was once many years back when I was in my 20's.
I was on a date with a gorgeous young lady and we had just finished a great meal in an expensive Chinese restaurant. I paid the bill, gave the tip, and we were just going to sit and talk a few more minutes while we finished the pot of tea.
I poured my date a cup then poured out the last few drops into my cup - along with a wicked huge dead cockroach :blink:
I let out a gasp and my date literally spat her tea out on the floor. The bastidges that ran the place wouldn't do squat for us though...we'd already paid the bill and given the tip. All they offered was an apology.
Needless to say I never went there again. -
What kind of rub did you use on the worm?
-
That's funny except that he said he didn't eat the worm.I think DP Jamaican Firewalk.
