Can red bayberry be eaten with worms?

Many friends may find that bugs crawl on bayberry after being soaked in salt water, so there is a saying that bayberry has worms. But will the worms in the flesh of red bayberry do harm to people? Let the editor analyze it for you.

Myrica rubra

This kind of worm will not be harmful to the human body when eaten, but is a kind of high quality protein. The white bug in bayberry is actually the larva of fruit fly. Fruit flies usually feed on honey, fruits, etc., and they are relatively clean. In its breeding season, it is attracted by the smell emitted by bayberry and lays eggs on the surface of bayberry. Its eggs hatch into larvae and drill into the pulp, which feeds on it. If it grows naturally, it will not fly away until the larva matures and becomes a fruit fly.

Myrica rubra contains antimicrobial peptides that can improve human resistance.

From birth to growth, fruit fly larvae are almost always in a pollution-free environment, so there are few bacteria that are bad for the human body. Some people also regard this bug as a treasure and think that it can improve people's resistance, so eating bayberry can't make you have a bad stomach.

The presence of bugs in bayberry is a natural phenomenon and a manifestation of biodiversity. Now more and more bayberry producing areas, such as Yuyao and Cixi in Ningbo, Xianju in Taizhou, Ouhai in Wenzhou, Qingtian in Lishui, Lanxi in Jinhua and other major producing areas have begun to adopt pollution-free and high-quality cultivation. Bayberry, which is cultivated by means of physical control, such as insect trap paper, insect repellent film, insect control lamp, insect prevention net and so on, can almost be insect-free. This kind of pollution-free red bayberry is more expensive and more popular, and it is also the direction of red bayberry planting in the future.

The shelf life of fresh bayberry fruit is very short, only 1 Mel 2 days at room temperature. If there are worms in it, it will mature with the deterioration of red bayberry. Drosophila larvae are harmless to the human body during the white larval stage. Once it begins to mature, turn black, and climb out, it is harmful to the human body to eat at this time. Therefore, after buying red bayberry, be sure to eat it as soon as possible.
