I bought some celery from Tesco yesterday. Lovely celery it is too. Celery is , as far as I know, the only food which takes more calories to consume than it provides. Presumably a small injection of protein would help to reduce that deficit. However I have to admit that the protein element in the form of a live wormlet was not really to my taste. It seems to be my luck though given that only a short while ago I met a caterpillar in some green beans that I'd bought. Fortunately I'm not particularly squeamish.
You get quite a good view of his innards on this though!
Good job you're not Jewish and kosher! Apparently even eating a worm in your celery is a no no - it counts as violating the commandement against consuming any of those living things that swarm.
