Midas

Think I should get a lottery ticket today. Had a Midas moment. There were some lovely, red, fresh rambutans in the kitchen. I picked one from the bag, placed it on the chopping board and cut a slit on the skin. Peel the skin off and saw a worm wriggling on the flesh. Threw the fruit into the dustbin. Picked another fruit from the bag. Cut it open. Found several worms wriggling on the fruit. Threw it into the dustbin again. Just to note, the skin of the fruits show no sign of the fruits being rotten. In fact the fruits weren't rotten. They were in perfectly good condition but just with additional worms as toppings. I picked another rambutan from the bag. Cut it open to find a couple more worms wriggling on the otherwise really nice flesh. I'd actually cut a worm in half when cutting the skin. Threw the third one into the dustbin as well. When others pick a fruit from the bag and peel the skin, no worms were on the flesh. Sweat. Seriously, speechless. Just a Midas touch moment.
