Found this among a new pack of blueberries. Burned the rest naturally. What was in here? from whatsthisbug
Ah, blueberries. A healthy little low-calorie superfood that you just want to pop in your mouth or sprinkle on your cereal and -- OMG WHAT IS THAT GAAAH NOOO MY EYES MY EYES KILL IT WITH FIRE!
A post from Reddit user bsegovia to the subreddit whatsthisbug last week might just put you off fruit, or all food, forever. Photos show a blueberry that appears to have been hollowed out, "Alien" style, and made to serve as a host for a creepy webby spider nest, though no spider mamas or babies appear in any of the images.
Reddit user breathfresh, identifying him or herself as a former blueberry farmer, claimed the bowl of SpiderBerry Crunch was harmless, writing, "Totally normal to find that in a organic quality farm once in a long while as bugs are natural and if they can live then it is a sign that healthy life is there. just chew it up and it all tastes the same."
Surrrrrre, that's what our alien soon-to-be-spider overlords WANT you to think. Take off and nuke the entire produce section from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
