I've seem something similar before but this one was used to produce food for chickens and fish.
We may end up with little choice soon. They will give it a nice name like JeFuChWhy. Basically what people said when they found out what was in it.

As long as they are covered in hot sauce they would taste alright
But seriously they provide a good source of minerals,We will probably be eating them in the future with not a problem

I think I'd cook, dry and grind them into a kind of flour which I could add to vegetable stews and suchlike. That way you get the protein without having to experience the look and texture of the insects. Maybe the Mk2 version will do this, much as a coffee vending machine grinds its own coffee beans!
