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

StealthPolarBear · 01/10/2020 20:57

Noodle definitely. Keep telling me yourself that op.

Cod worm? There is another zombie thread on the same topic

SchrodingersImmigrant · 01/10/2020 20:59

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

StealthPolarBear · 01/10/2020 20:59
Shock
Sparklfairy · 01/10/2020 20:59

hopefully it's a noodle

BetterEatCheese · 01/10/2020 21:00

Oh dear, don't google cod worm.

justasking111 · 01/10/2020 21:01

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

psychomath · 01/10/2020 21:01

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.

Carrotgirl87 · 01/10/2020 21:02

Fishworm. 🤢

StealthPolarBear · 01/10/2020 21:02

Doggy I am a haddock expert and can confirm there is definitely not.

1Morewineplease · 01/10/2020 21:03

As others ... do not google cod worm.

blueskys72 · 01/10/2020 21:03

Nah, that's a pea-string.

Bubbinsmakesthree · 01/10/2020 21:06

Cod worms are gross but harmless and very common!

Dillo10 · 01/10/2020 21:10

God when will I learn

Do not Google cod worm :(

PasDevantLesElephants · 01/10/2020 21:10

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

polkadotpjs · 01/10/2020 21:11

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

Cod worm.
Boak.

Hoglet70 · 01/10/2020 21:15

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

Ukholidaysaregreat · 01/10/2020 21:17

It is a cod worm! Noodle my arse!

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 01/10/2020 21:17

Isn't it a pea shoot?

Screwcorona · 01/10/2020 21:18

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

Whatsmydoggy · 01/10/2020 21:19

Doggy I am a haddock expert and can confirm there is definitely not.
Thank Christ for that Grin
