Didn't Podge and Rodge have a Scare at Bedtime where a fat guy ate a snake egg as a diet pill?

It's an urban legend mate.

If in fact they did put worms in Slim Fast, tape worms would really get the weight down fast!

well my mom's friend found maggots in her slimfast milkshake, she was about to drink it when she got a phone call and she was on it for about 20 mins and she came back and seen maggots in it. im not sure how they got in there or what but i heard rumours that when they are being made they are not protected from germs etc. and some blue bottle flies got in and layed eggs in some of the foods.

Whats the problem? The worms/maggots in your slim fast shake will be digested in your stomach thus giving an extra dose of much needed protein. A winning situation if you ask me.

IIRC if you cut an earth worm between the 5th and 20th segment it dies
anywhere else and only the bit with the "brain" and hearts ( 5 iirc ) lives

Like octupses worms brains are in a ring around the gut, so if the brain got too big they wouldn't be able to eat. maybe this is what's going on with stupid fat americans ?
