"Viral TikTok video exposes live worm in Costco salmon pack"

A TikTok user's video of a live worm found inside a pack of salmon at Costco has gone viral, garnering over 2 million views. While some commenters mentioned that worms are common in fish, others expressed concern about the price of the salmon. The British Columbia Centre for Disease Control has reported that 75% of wild Pacific salmon are infected with anisakid nematodes, a type of parasite found in fish. Thorough cooking or freezing can kill these parasites, but ingesting them in their live state can lead to infections.
