@fryrsquared: The good news: it's not ALL figs! Humans have cultivated some commercial varieties that ripen without pollination, so no wasps needed (though one can still wander in if other wild figs grow nearby). It all depends on where your fig came from before hitting your table. (And whether you think that is a risk worth taking)

Twig Tea :
nearly all farmed figs (95%) that are found in the grocery store are parthenocarpic (self fertilizing) and don't involve wasps at all.. but even in the wild are only ripe enough to eat after they have entirely dissolved and consumed the wasps within. On the otherhand, whenever you eat bread, you DO literally consume dead insect carcasses. All wheat contains insect fragments, and may even contain rat poop if the milling process is "natural". (natural processes often don't clean the grain as well).

Figs are mentioned in the Quran. They hold significance. And the story you just told just makes me want to say SubhanAllah over and over again.
