Costco isn't immune to gross food related lawsuits and in
2022, a family filed a $200,000 lawsuit against Costco after
discovering worms in their frozen halibut.
The grossest part?
They only discovered it after they started eating Yum.
This is how they found out.
Per the lawsuit filed, the family purchased a package of
Kirkland brand halibut fillets in March 2021.
They cooked it the same day and the parents, doctor
Vahid Burgess and his wife Nafisi Burgess, ate some of
the meal and shared the leftovers with their daughter.
It was then and when the horror unfolded as their
daughter picked at her fish with the fork and a
bunch of live worms allegedly crawled out.
Needless to say, it caused emotional distress and put the
Burgess kids off seafood indefinitely.
At the time of this video, the suit hasn't been
resolved.
It's unclear how Costco plans to worm their way out
of this one.
