Anyone else have a phobia of finding worms in fruits while eating?

I am really sensitive about this subject since childhood. My paranoia has become such that I avoid eating fruits and when I do I take very small bites making sure there are no worms.

My mom says I have been like this since the one time I was eating a mango andI saw a worm coming out of it. This was when I was 6.

I had a similar experience as a kid. I was eating custard apple as a kid and a worm randomly popped out. Been paranoid ever since.

I still like fruits, so I make sure I turn off every distraction when eating them. If I spot any worms moving around, I will consider that fruit wasted.
