Turkish Apricots

Worms
» Can be found inside the apricot

Although in general Turkish apricots (the thick orange apricots) do not contain worms, at times worms can be found in the middle of the sealed apricot. No statistics have been gathered indicating whether worm presence in Turkish apricots are a Miut HaMatzui that halachically requires them to be checked for worms

Nevertheless, when one eats Turkish apricots, several apricots should preferably be opened (by taking apart the two halves, which easily come apart) and checked for worms.
