i'm the one that gets all the gross critters, unfortunately.  Tongue
on the thread james posted, those sesame seed-like things were not eggs and were definitely moving.

also, i recently found fruit fly larvae and this is what they look like:

those definitely moved too and don't look the same as what you've found.

can you take a picture in macro mode and blow it up so we can see it better?  i think anything could have laid eggs in the food that hatched in 2 days.  have you noticed any type of small flying bugs or anything around?
