Meat burgers made with Mealworms / Tenebrio molitor. Insects are eaten as food in many parts of the world, and don't have to be scary. See Notes


RAW, uncooked edible insects. These are made with crushed dried mealworms mixed with soy protein - about 6 parts soy and 4 parts insects. There's a little white flour in there to help bind things together. Need to be shallow fried in a very little oil. Burnt bugs taste absolutely awful so they need to be cooked gently.
