Question I baked some fish the other day and as I was eating it I noticed something strange. I saw what looked to be a worm on my plate. Needless to say, I lost my appetite and threw away the rest of the fish. Prior to baking it, the fish had been marinated and frozen. Is this something that is common with fish, or should I be concerned about the store where I bought the fish?
Answer Hi Glenn,
Are you sure it was a worm and not a bone? Sometimes, when you bake fish, some of the fat will leach out in a funky pattern. Worms are definately not common in fish. If it was in the fish..yuk!!! You did not by any chance take a picture did you? I don't blame you for loosing your appetite. The correct temp to cook fish to is 145 (just fyi)....Lynn
