  Question: if I buy figs commercially, will they contain dead wasps? Or, is this something that only happens naturally?

    By the time the fig gets to you, the wasp would long have been digested/dissolved by the plant.

      Seriously, can not overstate how weird figs are.

    As far as I know it isn’t actually something that happens with the figs we eat. I think it is a specific type of fig and a specific wasp that does this.

    Also, the wasp in question is absolutely tiny.
