No idea what the hell that is but I'm glad it didn't come out of my spinach Shock

How big is it?

I know.....I am do glad It has been located Now too. When it was missing I had all kinds of thoughts about it making itself at home. It's about 3cm long I think 😨. Won't be buying spinach for a while!

I once had a 3 in fat dark green caterpillar start crawling across the sink after falling out of my organic kale I had from riverford organic farm I think that proved just how organic it was

I also once had a giant fat caterpillar in my Tesco spinach. About as fat and as long as my little finger. Trouble was, I microwaved the spinach in the bag it came in and the first I knew of the caterpillar was when it was on my plate about to go on my fork and into my mouth.

I didn't buy spinach again for years.
