Though i once saw a bug crawl out of a ripe fig, just as i was about to eat it.

It was a hell of a surprise when I cut open a peach and the pit was smaller and softer than usual and it split in two in my hands and a little slightly drowsy looking winged ant crawled out of one of the halves and started walking around on the counter. Little guy must have had such a long journey. I don't know how the hell they got INSIDE the pit.

Better than finding half a bug in the fig after your first mouthful
