We could box them up and ship them to China. I hear that the Chinese think they are tasty! I wonder how much we could get per pound?

I often wonder why some entrepreneur doesn't get into this sort of animal husbandry. I heard that some grasshoppers being sold in local stores in southwestern US for comsumption were contaminated with dangerous levels of lead. If someone in the midwest farmed them in an enclosure, fed them clean grain stalks, froze and shipped them out in colorful packaging... So what if it never sold to Americans, we could be on the threshold of a lucrative foreign market.
