Seriously? What a stupid mistake to make. There should always be internal processes right?

This is beyond tragic.

Wow that guy died first. How deluded

It took me a while before I realized. What a chonk!

Totally singing this at the Christmas get together

Thank you for spending the time to comment but unlike the other responses, yours wasn’t as helpful. After understanding how the wasp is involved in the lifecycle of the fig, I have no qualms eating it.

Also I don’t think understand what your comment is about…

Thank you for the input, appreciate it! I’m glad I had 3 very helpful response (yours being one of the 3 helpful ones!). I had assumed the wasp would still be there, didn’t realise it’ll be absorbed as part of the life cycle

Thank you! I appreciate your explanation - I didn’t realise it was part of the life cycle, not knowing made it easy to assume something worse

Thank you for the explanation, I wasn’t aware of the cycle. It hasn’t put me off figs. I think not knowing easily allows one to make a worse assumption of the actual life cycle.

I remember hearing about a parasitic wasp in a fig but is it all figs? I like fig but I don’t often buy it, this information inventivises me not to buy fig…

Leave my baked beans alone!

Wow we kept finding ways to slowly kill not only our planet but future generations too

Microplastics are in breast milk too. Our babies aren’t safe from it either.

This made me chuckle more than I expected haha

Agreed. Too ambiguous. Plus the photo makes it seem like she lived! WTF

In the UK, NHS issues me the prescriptions. I don’t l{ok at brands

Gives them airtime. I wouldn’t have heard of them if not for this.

Horrific! This is so bloody traumatising

Create a fund and use the dividends to fund free healthcare. Rather than spend it all in one go, I want it to continue generating a stable fund to keep things going.

I know someone who bought a flat which likely be flooded in 40 years time.
