Ferrero me! Cudburry me! Toblerone me! Curly Tops me! You name it, I can pig it out on chocolates in one sitting.
Teka, there’s this new chocolate of the future, Live Worms chocolates, Made in China, that is. It seems like everything is being copied from China but what in God’s name they imitate the international brand Ferrero chocolates with live WOOOOORRRMMMMMS?
The worms and moths were found crawling out of tiny holes in the chocolate when the consumers opened the foil wrappers.
The bugs had even managed to eat several chocolate balls.
Professor Ahn Young-chul, of Eulji University, said: “It seems to be seriously contaminated during the manufacturing process since the larvae of Plodia Interpun were found.”
One consumer, who bought the chocolate during a trip to China, said the manufacturers had insisted he go back to China with the chocolate if he wanted compensation. – via Sky news.
Watch this if you have the appetite.
In recent months, Chinese products, including toxic toys, toothpaste, inflammable clothes, poisoned pet food and contaminated medicine were discovered across the globe causing importers and consumers alike to question the quality of goods coming from China. Isn’t this alarming?
It’s infuriatingly sad but true. And I don’t think I could ever eat the real thing again unless if they are delicious worms, I’m still eating [pause] NOT.
What’s next? A rat in my congee?
Think twice before biting a chocolate – you might actually be chewing a wee bit more than you bargained for. But wait, I’m actually craving for some chocolates now. And please not with my favourite Truffles.

This happened to me in Cairo. I was 8 years old and on one particular roadtrip, a family friend bought me a Cadbury bar (the only available chocolate in Cairo at that time), the one with rice krispie-type pieces in one of the sari-sari stores there (there weren’t any big groceries at that time either). Anyway, when we opened the chocolate bar, there was not one, not two, but hundreds of tiny little maggots.
Gross. Gross. Gross.
I haven’t had a bad experience with food apart from the hair in my soup, which has happened once, but that is gross. BLEUGH!
D, as Gump once said, “life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you…” arrrghhhh knife! knife! I’m killing all these worms.
Wendy, that TOO. HAIR on the bathroom floors, hair on soaps, hair on my bed. Well if they are mine, I won’t mind.
kainin na lang sa dilim …joke!
that makes me think about carefully perusing my chocs first before taking a bite, yikes!
lol dimaks o nga parang balot! hehe Hanubayan! asar! chocolate monster pa man din ako! ewwwwwww
Dimaks, ginawang “balut” ganun?
Cheh, korak, but I really don’t like eating “balut” kahit sa madilim mo pa yan kainin, squissssshy.
Do you remember the mother of Enrique Iglesias, that women from your country, she did the ads of Ferrero Rocher in Spain for a few years it was very funny: “Isabel, whith those Ferrero you really conquered us” (well, the dictionary seays win over but…).
what i wantet to say is that in my home town once a mouse appear inside a Lidls yogourt. I don´t now if you have thoese supermakets, are geman cheap.
I’m glad that I’m not a chocolate lover, and it’s a good thing that it’s not closed to Valentine’s Day, a lot of breaking up I’d imagine.
Eeeewww!!! That is disgusting! I love chocolates, but no thanks to that one, heheh..That just means something is fishy in the factory wherever they are processing those chocolates. Yuck!
Inthesity, that reminds me of the movie Ratatouille, a rat dreaming to be a chef.
Ginger, but in Thailand, people eat fried worms and grasshoppers right? Exotic food isn’t my kind of food I’d dare see in my plate.
Diane, would you believe, during winter months here, I enjoy having a snake soup and it tastes like real chicken, unless you don’t tell me it’s made of snake.
Yes, it’s common for Thai/Lao people to eat Bamboo Worms, and there’re many other eatable insects, I don’t recall ever ate them, and it bugs me to see people eat them, but they said that it’s full of protein, I’ll pass, thank you. ;~)
yuck! yuck! hmmm, am not buying anything made in China, that is for sure. i hope those chocolates don’t make it here in the US. lately, there were quite a bit of recalled products in wal-mart which contained lead which are hazardous to children.
why don’t China take it slow but sure.
Ginger, even if you can trade it with hundred bucks, not for the weak stomach like me. Ugh, I’d probably faint, so call me chicken.
Belle, exactly. I am not really an anti-China but the conclusion of these so called “contaminated” ferrero slash fake slash chocolate slash made in China is that “you get what you pay for”. It’s like buying a pirated software at computer shop around here, they are cheap, but one thing for sure, it will crash your computer when you use it.
eeewwww!!! ayokong isipin! diriii
moral lesson, buy only orig swiss chocolate! the ones that have french words on the wrapper and none of those fookie chinese characters.
ikitttttt, bleh! pero san ka nakakuha ng curly tops? penge naman, hehe! basta leave the worms out of it.
I recently bought some Gertrude Hawke chocolates and I opened both boxes that were sitting in my cabinet and found those exact worms in my chocolate. The chocolates weren’t that old, I do know that they were at one point worm free. Its strange though how moths got into a closed container and laid thier eggs unless they were already in there……hmmm……..food for thought….
You have to take into consideration the poor working environments there are in china. Why else do you think you are getting filthy candies but because they work in it… The quality id to be lowered only to save a few bucks. WOW!
I was eating Birdseyes’ Bavarian beans with Spaetzle about 1970.Spaetzle resembles pasta.One large piece of what I thought was Spaetzle was like rubber.I chewed on it for about 10 minutes.I COULD NOT DENT IT ! (IT WAS ABOUT 3 AND 1/2″ LONG AND 3/8 ” IN DIAMETER.( I FINALLY REALIZED IT WAS AN INSECTS’ ABDOMEN.POSSIBLY THE ABDOMEN OF THE GIANT DIGGER WASP…..I sent it back to Birdseye with a note and received only one coupon for another Birdseye product.
