wtf, fruitfly?

[ratcreature]

I was making myself some banana-oatmeal pancakes for breakfast when a tiny fruitfly decided to commit suicide by flinging itself into the hot butter. So I had to fish a tiny fried insect out of my pan. I guess it was lucky it didn't try to land on the then still soft topside of my pancakes.

Extra protein? *heh heh*

Being vegetarian I'm opposed to eating insects, and tiny as it was it wouldn't have made much difference anyway. Occurances like this illustrate though why for premade food there are afaik just thresholds of insects parts they must stay under to pass hygiene rules, rather than zero tolerance of insects bits.
