"Researchers in the Netherlands used three factors -- land usage,
energy needs and greenhouse gas emissions -- to compare the
environmental impact of mealworm farms to chicken, pork, beef or milk
farms.
Compared to the other types of farming, mealworm farming
produced more edible protein using the same amount of land and less
energy, according to the study in the journal PLoS One.
The same team of researchers previously found that mealworms produce less greenhouse gases than other meat-producing animals."
Sounds good to me. You can grind them up and make them seem like turkey burger or something. If the taste is ok, I'm fine with this.
