Mealworms are a cheap and easy way of providing animals with the protein they need. These include birds, fish, reptiles and some mammals. Two billion people regularly consume insects in Africa, Asia and South America. The author wants to pass on her own experience for anyone interested in learning more about breeding mealworms. She wrote about what mealworms are and how people can breed their own mealworms for feeding animals and cooking delicious meals. Mealworms make an excellent, sustainable alternative to dairy products, chicken, pork and beef and have a nutty taste. In this booklet the author recommends five simple recipes with mealworms.
