Meal Worm Crunch

 It is a breakfast food prepared from meal worms and buckwheat grouts.

There may be a measure of disgust upon reading the title above, but meal worms are loaded with protein and other nutriments. They would be toasted. Buckwheat grouts, also appropriately toasted, would provide the perfect complimentary flavour.

Kids, inspired by the gross-out aspects of the goods to partake, would be doubly delighted by the excellent flavour. Adults also would become regular eaters. This may be done with existing technology.

       Ah, Peter, can't you see that the Crunch would be a scary AND safe food? Toasted meal worms can't hurt you; they can only nourish you.
