Maybe.
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------------------------
require 'csv'
csv_string = CSV.generate do |csv|
csv << ['dog', 'barking\, all night', 'woof\n']
csv << ['cat', 'meowing incessantly', 'meow\n']
end
csv_string.split("\n").each { |line| puts("# of fields:
#{line.split(',').length}\n") }

So then right, this isn't the desired result
# of fields: 4
# of fields: 3
I tried adding more backslashes to 'barking\, all night' barking\\, barking\\\, barking \\\\, none of them got different results they all said 4 and 3
