Dear Magma,

When we were children and found a bit of grit in our food, my dad used to say, "You have to eat a peck of dirt before you die," and we believed him. The only exception was that I very much dislike chewing grit, and will avoid it whenever I can.

Out of his attitude, however, I learned to expect that our immune systems took care of the rest.

But I do know about revulsion. Mine was about mice from the age of three, and earwigs later on...with opportunities on garter snakes, moths, and mosquitos. And one long black hair in a purchased salad.

The other day I learned to cut loosely built cabbage hearts, from the garden, in half and soak them in good-salt water for half an hour, so the 'things' would crawl out, although I knew that eggs can't crawl...and are often microscopic.

I was closely associated with the retail grocery industry for thirty years, owning and operating my own store for ten.

If you go to your grocery store for an explanation, they won't know. More than that, they will squirm over the situation, and pass the buck. Most people don't know the lengths grocery stores and meat shops go to in cleansing against bacteria and 'filth' of all kinds.

It is a job that just can't be completely done, with any certainty.

Temperature is another line of defence against critters. That's why we often prefer some things cooked. No doubt your critters are dead, and likely they were not of egg-producing age...though I doubt any eggs could have survived that heat.

I think you must be right that your critters came from the beans, if not from microscopic eggs in the meat. (They would be too small to be affected by grinding, though I don't know if they would have the time and temperature required to grow to that size in your refrigerator.)

I also think that, beyond your understandable revulsion, the only thing to do is take an anti-parasite cleanse, regularly. My best guess is that it should be herbal, and only taken judiciously.

I got this understanding from Jane Goodall's observation of an alpha male chimpanzee eating a few leaves of a certain bush only once in a while. Jane, herself, wondered if that bush contained anti-parasiticals.

You might like her essay on four reasons for hope.

Our immune systems are very powerful...otherwise we wouldn't last a day in this world. Proof? How many generations of people, since Lucy, have built our immune systems and instincts to this level? We are the finest of our species to ever walk the earth.

We can even tolerate and overcome poisons, in many cases...we do it every day...otherwise we'd have become extinct years ago, centuries ago, milleniums ago.

Revulsion happens appropriately...it's a wake-up call. But we don't live well long with revulsion...too many chemicals run through our systems when we are afraid...and even when we are indignant.

It is better, I think, to work with our amazing immune systems, incorporating natural assistance into our lives. Man gets really weird ideas sometimes. Better to follow our inborn instincts, I believe, one person, or family, at a time...that's what instincts are there for. We have multi-thousands of years history of success.

I am sorry you feel revulsion. I know only too well what that feels like. But it is temporary. We may carry it for a lifetime, I know, but we may also get a glimpse of just how powerful our bodies are in overcoming all obstacles. When that happens all fears vanish.

That's what your babe needs to hear, see, feel from you. What all our babes need from us.

I admire your good sense. I wish my kitchen was that clean, if only once in a while.

My very best,

Fledgling
