Why not chickens? Feed them the bugs and the chickens will magically transform them into tasty meat. Also, the brood hens can produce eggs, another tasty and healthful food.

All this, of course, requires actual work to be done.
Read James Clavell's "King Rat". It was one of the most influential reads of my youth.
