Spiders In Your Fruit

A Good Thing

Last month, at a grocery store, a TV reporter bought a container of red grapes that also held a black widow spider. The Aldi supermarket issued a refund and pulled the grapes from the shelves. Then a month later, the same thing happened at Aldi and Kroger stores in Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota and Pennsylvania.

And then a British family was told to evacuate their house after a Brazilian wandering spider, the most toxic arachnid out there, stowed away with its hatchlings on a bunch of bananas. What's going on? What are all these spiders doing in our breakfast fruit?
