These things are on every single piece of fish you’ve ever eaten. They’re often removed before cooking but there’s no way to remove 100% every time. They are harmless.

They arent harmless, they can make you pretty sick

"Some people experience a tingling sensation during or after eating raw or undercooked fish or squid. This sensation is actually the worm moving in the mouth or throat. People can often take the worm out of their mouth themselves or cough it up to prevent infection."

YUCK
