Mealworm Feast Time Lapse

posted by Jason Kottke Apr 20, 2021

This is pretty simple: 10,000 mealworms eating a tomato, piece of corn, and romanesco broccoli, filmed with a time lapse camera. My only comment is that for something called a mealworm, they don't eat as quickly as I thought they would. 10,000 mealworms couldn't polish off a tomato in less than 48 hours? You're never going to be a beetle at that pace! (via the kid should see this)
