What if the substance is cooked without being checked?

If a substance is cooked―without being checked:

• If it still can be checked (i.e. the infestation can still be noticed)―then it may be checked after cooking.
• If it no longer can be checked, its status depends on the level of infestation:
  • If the item is in the category of “frequently infested,”― the food cannot be eaten.
  • If the food is in the category of “sometimes infested,”― the food may be eaten ¹².
