Maggots in your Mushrooms

19 maggots per 100 grams of drained mushrooms is ok! If the FDA finds 20 or more maggots per 100 grams of drained mushrooms they will recommend legal action.

However, only 4 maggots are allowed if they are larger than 2 millimeters.

I realize you are probably completely disgusted to learn that your delicious mushrooms might have 19 small maggots or 4 of the big ones... but some might not even consider those quantities to be bad... next time consider ordering a pizza with mushrooms and maggots!

Maggots may even be able to improve human nutrition. A number of studies have shown that maggots can be valuable but inexpensive, protein-rich supplement for chickens in impoverished regions. see: [404 Check: was link to http:/ / www. spiderpharm. com/ feeders/ insects. htm, anchor: Insects] to lean about insects for food.

Maggots are severly dnagerous insects which if led open can cause damage to human beings
