These insects burrow into the flesh of tomatoes, leaving behind visible marks like the ones we see here.
This is a fairly common occurrence, although alarming for those unfamiliar with these pests.
It is not always a matter of poor handling or neglect.
Sometimes these bites can be the result of diseases or specific conditions associated with growing tomatoes. In any case, although it scared me at the time, I realized that this is just a normal part of the life cycle of these vegetables.
In the end, these tomatoes, despite the damage, were still quite edible. A little lesson in patience and acceptance of nature’s imperfections!
