Origins of helminths, maggots presence:

Helminths, maggots are types of parasites. Normally, parasites are contaminated from foods that go through unclean processing, are made from unsafe ingredients, with high moisture, or poor preservation process (e.g.: surrounding environment having lots of flies, bluebottles …).

Instant noodle manufacturing process:

‒ In the manufacturing process, instant noodles will undergo heat treatment processes including the process of steaming noodle strands with steam at the temperature of 100^oC, the process of frying in oil or drying products at high temperature (165^oC). At these temperatures, microorganisms and parasites will be destroyed.

‒ In addition, instant noodle products are low in moisture, kept in sealed packages, enclosed and clean manufacturing environment so it cannot be in contact with outside parasite contaminated sources.

‒ And during noodle processing process, we also use boiling water of high temperature (100^oC).

Thus, it is absolutely impossible that there are extraneous bodies like helminths, leeches or maggots in instant noodles.
