Definitely a developmental cocoon stage, Megan. I have seen them in varying stages of development as I mentioned in my post. When I first uploaded that pic & started a thread asking for help indentifying them, someone stated quite emphatically that they were banana fibers!!
It's plainly obvious that this is some sort of parasite phase & even if anyone were to consider banana fibers, the fact that I have been on the candida diet for 2 years & don't eat bananas rules that out 110%
All I know is after 4 different cleanses, I still pass these things on a regular basis.
