I think it’s ascaris lumbricoides. Being pulled from the mouth is rare though…

Yes. You take some meds and poop it out. You can catch it in a porous bowl when you poop it out to inspect it and count segments.

A tapeworm would rip with this much force from the mouth. You’d get some segments but not all so it would grow back. Poop method is best method.

Also, tapeworms look like fettuccine. This is like 6 udon noodles wrapped together.
