i think this is true with pork. But not every part of the pigs will have worms. In Singapore, there are some dishes which the Chinese eat the intestines of pigs. In these cases, the cook normally use coke to clean them cos there is a chance of worms residing in these intestines.

Of course not! How in the world would that work? And why would you be putting raw meat in coke anyway?

Help?

I suppose it could be true if there were worms IN the meat to begin with. I've marinated meats in Coke many times and have never run into that issue. Then again, I was using fresh wormless meat as well.

The easy way to prove it is to try and experiment it yourself then decide afterwards after seeing the result if you're going to believe it or not after doing that so-called experiment. <*-*>

No.
The meat you buy in the store does not have worms (or it should not have worms in it). They would not be allowed to sell it if it were wormy.
For worms to get into meat, insects would have to lay eggs directly on the meat. When these hatch they would feed off the meat for a while before crawling away to dry out and pupate.
The conditions to allow this would also allow the meat to spoil and anybody who eats it would get very sick.
So your grocery store meat does not have worms in it.
Other kinds of worms such as those that animals get when they are alive, live mostly in the intestines and lungs and not usually in the muscle.
Livestock with worm infestation are not marketable as food. All meat goes through FDA approval, from the barn to the butchers' block, to the meat wrapper.
No body wants to lose anybody's business so the store that wraps the meat checks for problems before it gets to you, the butcher checks the meat before it gets to the store, the stock buyer checks the animals before they go to the butcher, and the ranchers keep their stock fairly healthy before sending them to auction.

Of course not. But if you leave any meat or vegetables or fruit and it starts to get bad (rots) flys lay eggs on it and the eggs turn into maggots
