When we lived in the Middle East weevils in the flour were just a fact
of life. Like you we tended to get bored with sieving them out after
a while.

Similarly we fished out anything that floated when we boiled the rice
but anything that sank just got included in the meal.

Such as stones

removed half of one of my molars from a stone in some nasi goreng in
Indonesia

It must have been a bit dodgy to start with then :-)
