The habit gets a new name.
Wild-caught fish often come with parasites, but producers try to remove them. Sometimes, they fail. This woman’s sea bass had a worm, and she didn’t want to eat it. She got a refund from Whole Foods. People are grossed out, but not surprised. They’re like, “Yeah, fish have parasites, just cook it and you’ll be fine.”
Parasites are just a part of the wild-caught fish experience.
