9 1Ãâ·Ñ°æÏ Animal Sciences student Holly Fisher says eating bugs is the future of sustainable food.
"Once they get over the initial yuck factor, they really like the product," said Fisher.
She's working with the provincial Crown corporation, Perennia, to produce flour made from meal worms, and plans to take the product to the commercial market.Â
"At first people are like, 'ew I wouldn't eat a bug.' And then once you give them some sort of product with it in it, they love it. They realize that it's got a nice nutty flavour to it, so it's quite interesting."
