Cod fish are known to have worms. As long as your fish is fully cooked it just adds more protein. They're not harmful as tapeworms from freshwater fish.

no shit- you need to really check- most fish, and land animals have parsites. Usually they get them out while cleaning, but not all. They'll die and are hormless when cooked, but they are gross to see. No food- even vegetables, is totally safe and harmless.

That .67 you paid was for the worm!

This is not a big deal! Lots of fish have little worms in them; fishmongers usually pick them out before they sell them because people don't like to see them. Once in a while, they miss one. The worms will die when you cook the fish properly, and they are harmless.

Do some research. There are plenty of bacteria, microbes and parasites that are NOT killed by freezing - and also, what has freezing got to do with sushi?!

(Nearly) all meats has some parasite in them. You cook them and it kills them. Its all protein anyways. No harm.

i just throw the fish in ice water and the worms crawl out :) no problem

Most cod has worms. Usually they are dead,so you rarely actually see them. Even if you could, most people don't look that closely.
If you don't want to eat worms, don't eat cod.
Thanks to all for your comments. The day we discovered it, we did some research and found (as you mentioned) that such a worm can be naturally occurring. However, I would like to point out one unmutable fact: WORMS IN FOOD ARE STILL GROSS!!!!
Thank you.
