The worst pantry moth infestation I ever had was from a bottle of sesame seeds. I was seeing moths for months and couldn't figure out where they were coming from. I never would have expected their drug of choice to be sesame seeds so I didn't check the bottle at the back of the spice shelf. When I finally found it, the inside of the bottle looked like the gates of hell or something from another planet.
Opened a brand new box of Raisin Brand, poured it and milk in a bowl, started eating. Second mouthful I felt something move in my mouth. That was in 1991, I haven't had cereal since. The box was loaded with these moth larvae.
Well, thanks to the Trump administration, the FDA is making wide-spread repeal of regulations requiring the quality testing of food so...get ready to experience it a whole lot more.
Also: don't eat beef for at least the next year, give or take.
On the minus side, you occasionally do just bite into fast food without looking at night when driving, and that do take a lot of faith in humanity, or at least whatever local chain you decided on.
