TLS spoke with Rabbi Felder, who advised we publicize this to prevent a Michshal.
“They brought me the apples – each one had a worm in it,” Rabbi Felder told TLS. “I never saw something like that.”

sensationalism at its best. picture shows red apples – letter talks about golden apples
In the olden days before chemicals were sprayed on apples we cut out the wormy parts. In todays world organic farmers have the option of using integrated pest management. Hopefully it will be this growers choice next year.
