Mealworms, anyone?

    Yuck factor aside, consuming insects and other invertebrates in place of other animal products can massively reduce your environmental footprint. I’m investigating doing this because I want to use less land, CO2, energy etc. without compromising the nutritional value or tastiness of my diet. So:
    1) does anyone know somewhere near Galway where I can sample this kind of thing?
    2) can I source some mealworms grown for human consumption that aren’t super expensive?
    3) has anyone tried farming the critters? Is it time consuming?

    I don't know about mealworm in Galway but I would imagine that there a whole host of other ways to effectively reduce your carbon footprint before eating mealworms comes into the equation.

    But I doff my cap to your dedication to reducing it.
