Someone mentioned them to me a little while ago, so I looked them up. It must have been 2 years before I could face eating fish again.
Note to lurkers: do not look up 'cod worms' in Google. You have been warned.
And it doesn't have to be raw, merely not properly cooked.
Are they the same sort of thing as the nematode worms that live in dogfish?
I dissected several dogfish in the course of getting through Biology A Level. Once I had one which had ripped its own guts open thrashing in the net, with the result that the first thing I encountered upon making the initial incision was the contents of its bowels, which included some hundreds (at the very least) of nematode worms.
The formaldehyde had killed them, obviously... but the stench from the gut contents combined with the sight of all those tiny worms, brought me as near as I ever came to chucking up while doing a dissection
