Since the images of the figs are binarized too, I'm imagining a font fully made of figs from different angles. Uppercase letters would be whole figs, and lowercase would be figs cut in half like in the image.

I mean, that article says it is true. It's not a live or a whole wasp, but there is a wasp used to grow the fig. It's just broken down in such a way that it's impossible to distinguish the waspy bits from the figgy bits. Like when you eat nachos. Eventually, some part of you will be made of nachos, but it would be impossible to tell those parts apart from another other parts.

I was told as a child that the crunch was dead ants. Why any adult would ruin fig newtons for a kid is beyond me.

I love figs so much, I'd still eat them even if they were full of wasps.

More like fig . 1a and fig. 1b

Laziness. That figures.
