Not kosher
Anonymous, uk has a good point, but didn't actually say the real concern. Those worms are not bad for you, but they are not kosher. So, watercress is kosher, but worms...not so much.

watercress
According to the renowned authority on infestation Rabbi Eliyahu Falk of England it is strongly recommended not to use watercress as it is frequently infested with small colorless worms which are most difficult to detect.
