Its true, if you buy shop bought nan breads or dumplings the moths lay their eggs in the flour and are cooked with the rest of the recipe, moths, maggots, eggs the lot. I worked in a bakery for a few years. They are harmless but horrible to think off. I dont eat them any more.

They are called Weevals.
If you want real maggots you have to eat meat.
blowflys lay thier eggs on the skin of cows and sheep. The maggots burrow into the skin and can get into muscle.
Its a regular occurance and we have to check our animals regularly to remove maggots.
If you eat meat, you eat maggots

It happens with all flour goods,but if the product is well coooked then the critters die. Anyone who leaves flour in the cupboard for a year or even less will notice their flour is kind of stringy. Anyhow,they are only going to taste of flour aren't they!! Bummer for vegetarians though ;-)

Want to creep out, look up the amount of insect parts allowable in wheat products, bread, pasta, etc.

I did not know that and now I need to forget it, that is gross - what kind of bakery did you work in, aren't there hygiene rules against these things or something

Im sorry but I don't believe you as the food standards agency has regulations in place for hygene and our right to know what exactly is in our food, the only way your statement can be true is that if your bakery was filthy and should have been reported to environmental health.

So why are you pointing out just naan and dumplings?
Are you being racist?
Wouldn't it apply to pies, cookies, breads, donuts, etc?
