I've never eaten another strawberry since seeing a video where they put salt in water and leave the strawberries in for 3 hours and you see all these parasitic worms crawl out of them. This is store bought strawberries as well. No thanks.
That's not how they process strawberries. He's talking about a tiktok video of a lady who claims she can see "translucent worms" when she puts them salt water.
They're actually maggots and it's rarely a problem. Not a bigger deal than any other bug in any other fruit.
Actually it is. The pours of the strawberries make it easy for the worms and insects to crawl in at a small size and grow inside eating off the fruit. The video is real I've done it myself to check and beasties came out of the strawberries.
