Worst Culinary Experience

Years back, when I was a child, my parents bought some frozen monkfish. They thawed and prepared it according to the directions on the package, baking it at 450 degrees for 45 minutes. Mom served the fish and our accompanying sides. We cut into our portions only to find live worms crawling all over our plates. We called the health department in Nashville, and they instructed us not to eat the fish (not that there was any chance of that). I will never knowingly eat monkfish, but you have to admit after being frozen and then cooked, those are some remarkably resilient worms.
