While all flowers originate from within the larger plant and emerge from sepals or guard leaves, the only plant which has a flower which opens, grows and is pollinated inside the fruit, is the Fig. The tiny fig wasp burrows inside the fruit and pollinated the flower growing inside. The wasp also incubates its young within the fruit, as well. One variety of fig which does not require fig wasp pollination, but still grows its flowers inside the fruit is the fig called the Brown Turkey Fig.
Figs and fig wasps engage in a mutualistic symbiotic relationship. The female fig wasp pollinates the fig's flowers while laying her eggs inside the fig's specialized flower structures. In return, the fig provides a safe environment and nourishment for the developing larvae. This relationship is crucial for the reproduction of both the fig and the wasp, as the wasp's life cycle depends on the fig, and the fig relies on the wasp for pollination.
If you eat figs, you are consuming wasps, some do not make it out of the fig and die inside. You are not guaranteed to be eating wasps.
The relationship between figs and fig wasps is a classic example of mutualism, where both species benefit from each other. Female fig wasps enter the fig's syconium to lay their eggs and, in the process, pollinate the flowers inside. The fig provides a safe environment and food for the larvae, while the fig benefits from the wasp's pollination, ensuring the production of seeds for future generations. This intricate partnership is vital for the reproductive success of both the fig and the wasp.
To cut a fig in a way that preserves its shape and flavor, use a sharp knife to make a vertical cut from the top of the fig down to the base, without cutting all the way through. Then, gently open the fig like a flower to reveal the inside. This method helps maintain the fig's shape and flavor while also making it visually appealing for serving.

Yes, a fig is the fruit of a fig tree; that makes it 100 percent suitable for vegetarians. ----- Not necessarily. Figs are pollinated by wasps and some die inside and don't make it out. Although the fig ultimately dissolves the wasp within, there is still a dead female wasp inside and so some vegetarians would consider that eating a dead animal. There is no way to "wash" the insect off the fig.
