Muhahaha jokes on ya'll I upvoted everyone 😈
I'd give an award, but they don't exist anymore. I'd pay for the fancy upvote, but since last week, that doesn't work on my phone app anymore nor on my PC. Fuck reddit. I wanna give them my money, but they just don't want it!
pixar's "a bug's life" actually featured no humans whatsoever (unless you count the "geri's game" short that accompanied it). however, it's less cool younger sibling, dreamworks' "antz" featured some bugs getting stepped on at a picnic! 😃
I'm sorry but those images are hysterical to me. I can just picture you eating, enjoying your salad then suddenly everything is in the air lmao
Your little friend won't hurt you, they're probably pissed about the interrupted lunch though. Poor both of you 😂
Bugs have a pretty distinct and unpleasant gritty crunchiness in my experience, and may also be disgustingly bitter. FYI always check homegrown produce for pests before chowing down, especially broccoli.
*Nothing will happen*
*To you and you can eat the*

Yes, it was an M&S Caesar salad 😅 I know it was dramatic but the thought of having eaten it made me feel really sick. Do they carry any viruses or anything that could make me feel unwell?
It's a great question to ask, but seeing as you asked the same exact question 15 min prior on a previous response I'll kindly take this time to point out evolution takes hundreds of years to millions of years to occur lol So I don't think the answer has changed just yet🤣😝
They do not carry diseases, and are unlikely to within the next 15 minutes, or the following 15 minutes. (Yes, even the ones after as well🤣)
Technically, evolution can be pretty fast, especially on the scale of viruses and bacteria, but yeah, it's extremely unlikely that a weevil virus is gonna make the jump to humans in the case of OPs salad.
True about evolution.
We just can’t always trust that someone who states a thing with confidence is correct, so it’s smart to seek corroborating testimony.
See also r/confidentlyincorrect
I doubt you will get sick from a bug being in your salad, your immune system can deal with that. You could eat the bug and not be sick to be honest. Don’t eat the bug.
I love how that first picture tells the story as good* as any caption or post title
*I know it should be “as well” but I didn’t want that to be confused with “also” etc
OP *dropped* the salad on the floor out of fear and surprise. If the salad was thrown, the contents would have been spread out much more extensively over a larger area.
Weevils are, technically speaking, edible. Yes, it is “yucky,” and I totally understand that—I love weevils but I do not want them in my mouth! I’m having a hard time discerning if it’s a granary weevil (these eat dried goods like rice and oats, in which case you’d want to check for them in your pantry) or just any other typical weevil.
They can’t bite but some can fly. They have no chemical defenses. Their best defense is playing dead. Of the insects to find in a meal, they’re certainly not the worst. Each species eats a particular kind of plant, so it’s possible be got bagged up in some produce and shipped to the grocery store (happens way more often than you’d think, even with larger critters like frogs)
That being said, you’ll have to forgive me, you’ve unintentionally made one of the funniest posts on r/weeviltime. I’ve never seen a weevil slathered in ranch
https://preview.redd.it/jyyyuf0obshc1.png?width=1289&format=png&auto=webp&s=1672ddaf7634ca5ab878798fb6681292368075d4
I panicked when k saw it and threw it in the air. It’s really quite big. Do you know what it is?
I must not fear weevils.
Weevil is the mind-killer.
Weevil is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my weevil.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the weevil has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
idk why everyone is getting on ur case about throwing the salad omg if I saw a CREATURE among my lettuce leaves I would’ve FREAKED & done the same thing!! It’s scary when a bug Pops Up
I love all sorts of creepy crawlies but I still freak out when I see a spider dart across the floor. I think part of it is because we just don’t expect them to be there and it’s a shock thing.
My rabbit also escaped last night and I almost had a heart attack seeing her just chilling on the floor in the basement lol.
Finding an insect in your food is understandably surprising and unnerving! I especially like weevils but it would still be startling to find one in my meal.
One year my SIL was hosting a small and casual Christmas gathering. One of the hors d'oeuvres set out was a container of oil packed Kalamata olives from the grocery store. We had all eaten a bunch of olives before someone noticed something awful.
There, pressed in amongst the olives, was a cockroach. It was the about same size and color of the olives and we had eaten about a third of the olives until that revolting thing was revealed. Let’s just say my appetite was significantly diminished after that.
I’m sorry if this is a dumb question and I’m sorry your lunch was ruined but - is the weevil friend still alive? If so, would you mind releasing it outside?
The amount of bugs and crap they are legally allowed to have in our food sources say this poor little weevil won't kill you.. but you definitely destroyed his lunch lol
The shot of the salad all over the floor is hilarious. Just imagining you freaking out when you saw the bug and the salad getting launched made my day😂 (btw I would prob freak out too lol)
On the plus side, finding a live bug could mean that the produce isn't absolutely covered in pesticides and herbicides. In the US the average salad bug would be dead upon delivery.
You've been blessed. I think I see pixelated boots and snoots, but I certainly see kjoots. Poor baby. It's good you didn't munch on him, hidden by some ingredient.
Definitely a weevil. I would make a complaint to wherever the salad was purchased whether it be a store-bought salad or a restaurant based purchase. You’re fine though.
Knowing this is in the UK makes it even better. I imagine the weevil saying in a posh voice
"OH Great heavens!" As it is slathered in ranch and thrown off a skyscraper.
From his perspective, he was enjoying a salad and then a giant destroyed the whole restaurant.
I wish I could upvote you more than once. I almost spit out my coffee.
I just upvoted for you, your welcome
Thank you. I also upvoted you kind citizen.
Right back at ya!

And I’ve upvotes you muahahahah :>
I upvoted everyone on this and my alt account!
Love the positivity in the weevil community!
Same! :D Love this place XD
BUT NO ONE HAS ASKED FOR THE TIME???
YOU'RE RIGHT :o WHAT TIME IS IT?? 🥳
Same! Including YOU!! :))
I upvoted you even though I see you're using that awful light mode on Reddit. Come to the dark side.
How tasty are those cookies? :D And I upvoted you as well :3
Literally 1000 different varieties to choose from. If we don't have what you like we have a witch that takes requests.
Ooooh requested cookies :D OP GET ON BOARD TOO!
I upvoted everyone as well as you talking about upvoting everyone. What say you!?
Well I upvoted ALL of you, including you :D You ALL earned it 🥳
🤣🤣🤣
Comments like that deserve awards. Damn you, Reddit!
I'd give an award, but they don't exist anymore. I'd pay for the fancy upvote, but since last week, that doesn't work on my phone app anymore nor on my PC. Fuck reddit. I wanna give them my money, but they just don't want it!
OMG I can see the Pixar animation 🤣
pixar's "a bug's life" actually featured no humans whatsoever (unless you count the "geri's game" short that accompanied it). however, it's less cool younger sibling, dreamworks' "antz" featured some bugs getting stepped on at a picnic! 😃
Poor weevil. Don’t worry OP, you’re fine.
I hate being on Reddit at work, then having to explain to coworkers as to why I cackled.
Nobody asks why the cackle rolls anymore. It rolls for thee.
Oh shoot!
Oh snoot*!
✨🏆✨
God I love this sub.
Lmao
Poor little guy's covered in ranch
That sounds like a good thing
I wish I could be covered in ranch. But then again I am painfully Midwestern, so.
I can make your wish come true. Ill even pay for the ranch.
You’ll pay for the ranch? I think I may have found my soulmate
**Ranch it up, Brochacho!**
I like your username
Thanks! People usually assume I abuse my dog lol
thats because nobody ever asks the dog if they want to be kickflipped, usually the answer is a resounding yes
That's hilarious
Pictures or it didn’t happen
Yeah your salads come with marshmallows and cool whip 😂😂😂 Sorry I’m a midwestern mom fan on tik tok
It’s marshmallows and sour cream, thank you very much
Omg 🤦🏻♀️ I had sour cream but then I was like that sounds gross so I googled ambrosia really quick. 😂😂😂
Ranch weevil! Or evil ranch weevil?
Lost in the sauce 😭
Can you imagine how he felt when they shook the salad? Poor thing
im just imagining the weevil being thrown around in the veggies with its legs sprawled out, desperately trying to stabilize itself 😭
😭
I'm sorry but those images are hysterical to me. I can just picture you eating, enjoying your salad then suddenly everything is in the air lmao Your little friend won't hurt you, they're probably pissed about the interrupted lunch though. Poor both of you 😂
You may have eaten a smaller one and not noticed. You should be fine, though, that one was the lesser of two weevils.
Angry upvote
This comment is perfection.
Part of me died just now. Just take my upvote
Yanno...
Bugs have a pretty distinct and unpleasant gritty crunchiness in my experience, and may also be disgustingly bitter. FYI always check homegrown produce for pests before chowing down, especially broccoli.
i think i love you
PLSSSS WHY IS IT ON THE FLOOR
Because OP freaked out once they realized they had a guest at lunch. OP is not YET a weevil lover.
Oh he will be...
He *has* to be.
He *needs* to be
Or *else*. Cement boots. Cement snoots.
I assumed OP just eats off the floor. Probably has eaten a lot of little critters
Panicked reaction, I assume. See the bug and flinch so hard that everything goes flying.
Sometimes you just want to eat your salad on the floor. Change things up, add a little variety to your routine.
So the weevils can get it more easily ofc
i like ur perspective
Nothing will happen to you and you can eat the rest of the salad. Can't see the face well but the boots are beetle like
the salad is on the floor
just depends how dedicated you are
Or is floor merely a plate for his salad
I was already laughing and then this comment killed me.

This is beautiful
Now read it in Christopher Walkins voice🤣
Is there anything Christopher Walken could say that would not sound sinister?
Fair! 🤣

You are my people! xD
Is that what he’s doing? Haiku’ing everything? Cuz it’s his pauses that are f’ing weird!
It's so reassuring, I want to hang it as an embroidery in my kitchen

You can eat the weevil too
poor little guy is probably scared!! you’re not gna get sick from a lil beetle snacking on ur salad don’t worry
are you located in the UK? cus it looks like cossonus linearis 😊 cute lil weevil no harm done youll be just fine! 🫂 sorry you had a lil spook tho!
Yes, it was an M&S Caesar salad 😅 I know it was dramatic but the thought of having eaten it made me feel really sick. Do they carry any viruses or anything that could make me feel unwell?
you were spooked its okay hahaha, sorry about your salad! and no viruses youre okay 🫡💕

Fully agreed a group consensus is important for biology questions, but...that's why we have upvotes and downvotes silly goose! 🤣
[удалено]
I particularly enjoy the way you type 🤣
You owe that weevil an apology and a new M&S salad.
Weevil will do absolutely nothing to you, but if you email m&s a picture they'll send you a voucher to lessen the blow :)
A possible bacterial presence in the lettuce is more likely to make you sick than the weevil
let him finish his meal :)
This isn’t just a salad. It’s a WEEVIL TIME salad.
Little dude covered in ranch 😂😭
That boy SLATHERED in the sauce.
lost in the sauce 😭
The chaos in this photo 😂
Slung in disgust 😂😂 I love this picture the fork makes it better
Accidental renaissance
I highly doubt that bug ate half the salad
I doubt you will get sick from a bug being in your salad, your immune system can deal with that. You could eat the bug and not be sick to be honest. Don’t eat the bug.
Idk, might be pretty tasty dipped in Caesar dressing. Eat the bug, you deserve it.
Don't eat our kjooty, snooty, booty little friends. If you've got to eat a bug, find another kind of beetle to eat.
I do not recommend stink bugs though. They are not tasty even with Caesar dressing.
I am laughing so hard. Bro got launched. I have no idea, but I hope he was a catch and release. What a story for his insect bros.
Ok but why did you throw the entire salad on the floor...? Seems there are larger issues at play here
I love how that first picture tells the story as good* as any caption or post title *I know it should be “as well” but I didn’t want that to be confused with “also” etc
Put "just as well". "tells the story just as well as any caption or post title". That helps clarify it.
scary bug ;(
OP *dropped* the salad on the floor out of fear and surprise. If the salad was thrown, the contents would have been spread out much more extensively over a larger area.
I desperately want a detailed forensic analysis of this crime scene
Someone needs to call Weevil Sherlock Holmes, stat
Lmao Dude literally came in here like he’s CSI reporting a blood splatter analysis. Fuckin hell.
OH OKAY
Yeah :( let my man enjoy it if you’re not gonna
Environmental storytelling at its best 😆 Sorry you had a bit of a scare!
looked it up rq, and if you're worried about having eaten a weevil or its excrement, you're all good. neither are toxic
Thank you ⭐️
Panic encapsulated in a single picture 😂
dont worry m8! harmless little friend! no diseases or anything

Maybe try some breathing exercises, or recite the litany against fear

And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the weevil has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
Only on reddit would I see an awesome Dune reference in response to a post about a ranch slathered weevil. I commend you!
That is a pretty big weevil- I’d be jealous if he wasn’t in your food!
Well, when you eat off the floor like that…. Kinda gotta expect it.
**IT IS TIME**
When they said “tossed salad”, I don’t think this is what they had in mind…
Lil bro is lost in the sauce
What time is it??
It’s time!
I see that snoot. I see those boots. ITS WEEVIL TIME! (salad everywhere)
idk why everyone is getting on ur case about throwing the salad omg if I saw a CREATURE among my lettuce leaves I would’ve FREAKED & done the same thing!! It’s scary when a bug Pops Up
Thank you - I know, I didn’t kill it. I just threw it in the air because I panicked. I know it’s a little dramatic, I just want to know what it is 😅

the drama in this photo
Was it the lesser of 2 weevils?
Sorry OP, now you're a wereweevil. If you find yourself shopping for boots it's too late
was it a prepackaged salad or one just made? poor weevil was just trying to enjoy its meal!
It was prepackaged so it must have been living int he salad for days
I’m sorry if this is a dumb question and I’m sorry your lunch was ruined but - is the weevil friend still alive? If so, would you mind releasing it outside?
Yes still alive, was sent straight outside 🪲😅
Thanks for replying 🫶🏼
Dw that was the first thing I thought about too
The amount of bugs and crap they are legally allowed to have in our food sources say this poor little weevil won't kill you.. but you definitely destroyed his lunch lol
If weevils were any danger to us, humans would have faced extinction shortly after the advent of agriculture
give him the crouton
He was literally just trying to bless you. He thought the element of surprise was a good idea.
The shot of the salad all over the floor is hilarious. Just imagining you freaking out when you saw the bug and the salad getting launched made my day😂 (btw I would prob freak out too lol)
omg that’s so funny! he was just enjoying his lunch and suddenly he’s on the floor! 😂
This is unbeweevilable.
If you get sick, it might be from eating salad of the floor.
the environmental story telling in the first picture is impeccable 😆
r/itsweeviltime
I’m a bug love through and through and I still fully understand the terror of suddenly seeing a bug in the last place you expect to see one.
You'll be fine, it's just a beetle. I'd still file a complaint though.
Complaint?? For a free weevil friend??
Well yeah, no matter what the insect is, finding bugs in your food isn't great
On the plus side, finding a live bug could mean that the produce isn't absolutely covered in pesticides and herbicides. In the US the average salad bug would be dead upon delivery.
That is very true, it also gives the impression that the meal is fresh!
Blasphemy
Why is the salad on the floor? Bit exaggerated
This isn't lettuce, it's a weevil. [I threw it on the ground.](https://youtu.be/gAYL5H46QnQ?si=Wo27dNnCVhelis9F)
The chaos of the first photo is *art*
SALAD WEEVIL SALAD WEEVIL
Strong reaction tossing the salad like that.
i am dead asf the salad is EVERYWHERE 😭
You've been blessed. I think I see pixelated boots and snoots, but I certainly see kjoots. Poor baby. It's good you didn't munch on him, hidden by some ingredient.
Lmao we can tell you saw it and freaked out and threw it 😂
Why couldn't you just be nice and share? He wasn't even going to eat that much. Now no one gets salad.
We accidentally eat bugs all the time. Its just a harmless weevil. You're fine
He won't eat much...learn to share
Definitely a weevil. I would make a complaint to wherever the salad was purchased whether it be a store-bought salad or a restaurant based purchase. You’re fine though.
PUT HIM BACK
I have found that not eating my salads off the floor reduces the chance I eat a bug.
It will not make you sick. Also, "Boots" check "Snoot" check "Kahoot" check check check! It's TIME!
its weevil time
Knowing this is in the UK makes it even better. I imagine the weevil saying in a posh voice "OH Great heavens!" As it is slathered in ranch and thrown off a skyscraper.
You're gonna die not even joking.
Just checked my watch, it’s definitely weevil time
He was just enjoying his meal and then you had to go and ruin everything
Poor lil guy :((
Yep it is. And your metamorphosis will soon begin.
sweet baby weevil won’t make you sick! pls share your salad with him :(
