Just eating oven fish and chips and spotted this horrific sight. I'm now trying not to hurl or Google. It was nice too before this sighting. WTAF is it?? Is it a worm?????

Looks like food, maybe a noodle from a close by production line in the factory

I too don't think that's a worm. Was it in a mushy peas? Because it could very well be that string which is in pea pods

Fish worm, will not have hurt you, pretty gross to find though.

Looks like a long stalk from a piece of cress or something to me. Don't think it's a worm or it would have got mushed up along with the peas Envy

I've just finished a plate of oven fish and chips 5 minutes ago. I had haddock. Please say there's no such thing as a haddock worm.

Cod worms are gross but harmless and very common!

It's times like this I rejoice in vegetarianism. Makes up for missing out on bacon sandwiches!

I'm hoping it was a pea thing as I did have mushy peas with it but it looked so noodle like not stringy! I didn't eat any more fish after but did eat the chips and peas

I used to work on a fish counter. Doesn't look like a cod worm to me; more stringy vegetable.

It's not a worm. I've taken plenty worms out of fish that got straight from harbour, or husband lol.
