This is not my beautiful house! This is not my beautiful wife!

Same as it ever was.

Pretty sure it didn’t survive a trip through stomach acid.

Did you ever find a bug on a vegetable in the market?

🤔

Maybe

Granted, I think a human stomach is more difficult to traverse than a frog, and it's more likely that it came in the back door. I'm just not willing to rule it out.

I vote food. There must be some unlikely placement along a meal that allows it to spend minimal time in contact with the acid.

My best guess is that it was on some of the equipment and somehow got transferred in during the colonoscopy.
