@GnarlyKnuckles: a fly in my soup joke is a joke, being personally attacked and stalked for a wisecrack is out off order.
@[Deactivated]: i replied to your attack and the negs came from others because i don't waste mine or get unlimited ones like some of my hateclub.
Reminds me of the time I just finished cooking a large bowl of rice. I had just taken it off the stove and finished rinsing it under cold tap water in a collander.
I turn around and a fly had landed in there! I smushed it in the rice and threw the whole thing out in disgust.
I ate tuna that night, no chance of unwanted insects in canned food.

Not sure if this is a joke. :S
I'd rather unwanted fly than unwanted dolphin in my food.
What's wrong with dolphin? It's a fatty mammal, probably tastes like wagyu beef
I say you take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
No Bikies option…?
Carefully remove the pasta to not break apart the fly, then proceed to cook and eat the fly.
deep fry the fly intact
it just boils down to the cost of a bag of pasta VS you emptying your tummy endlessly in the loo.
FFS put a lid when you cook if you live next to the tip, even half a lid is better than no lid. What an unintelligent fly.Soak the packet pasta hours in advance so you don't have to worry about cooking the fly
You don’t know what else is in there. Order pizza instead.
I’ve actually had this dilemma…. except it was a delicious soup I’d been brewing for hours and suddenly a massive moth flew in and disintegrated upon landing. Was so upset, definitely wasn’t going to eat.
Yeah if it's a fkn fat blowfly then you bet i'd be throwing that out lolol
edit - oh lord i re-read and you got a suicidal moth RIP
You Spot a Fly in The Water
Knockdown and rebuild home. Your kitchen is compromised as flies have access to it.

If it’s pasta for 1-2 people and by water you meant water for boiling pasta, i’d start over. If thats huge batch of pasta where you are boiling about 10l of water i’d remove the fly and continue on.
Fly could be full of maggots, throw out pasta start again.
the fly was a maggot …
aint it ok to eat maggots?
cook it to deathbear grylls ate it raw
sprinkle some pepper to season
Here's the Islamic ruling.
"Prophet PBUH mentioned in a hadith from Abu Hurairah RA, where the Prophet PBUH said:“When a fly falls in the drink of one of you, he should fully dip it and then throw it away because there is a disease in one of its wings and cure in the other.”
Sahih al-Bukhari (3320)"

Remove fly.
Learn from experience; put lid on.
Move on; don't dwell on the pasta.If it's spider forget pasta .. otherwise common it's just a fly
What you have given us is a best case scenario. What happened to me was finding out after a few bites into the food.
Extra protein

OK 'amps' and Petri dish, if you ladies are going to 'scrag on' again I fully encourage that, for the entertainment of the masses … but this time can we establish a few ground rules first?
