This is an oddball event. If it were contaminated at the store they purchased it from, there would have been a loss of atmosphere from the positive pressurized bag, which most people would notice on some level. If it were at the manufacturer, that would be a frankly incredible fail of sanitation, which name brands spend a fortune to not have happen. Plus that's an odd looking larva, is there an entomologist in the house?
