i think that I am going to be slightly more aware of the fruits I eat, especially if I got them from my strawberry picking place. But surely suppliers of supermarkets have to make precautions to prevent this calamity from occurring, and don't we already have maggots that live in apples etc? I feel really strange just thinking about biting into an apple and hearing the squelch of a crushed maggot beneath my teeth!!! Yuck.
