That's because mushrooms have the honor of possibly containing the most mites, with up to an average of 75 mites allowed per 100 grams of canned or dried mushrooms; frozen broccoli isn’t so far behind (sorry again), with up to an average of 60 mites allowed per 100 grams. (But the good news is that broccoli can only contain up to a total of 60 mites, thrips or aphids.) Interestingly, canned or frozen spinach can have up to 50 mites (or thrips or aphids) per 100 grams, but only if it also doesn't have two or more "spinach worm" larvae that exceed 3 millimeters in length.
