In Peru, insect consumption, as a nutritional complement or as the main source in the diet, is limited to the regions of our the central jungle where ants are consumed. An energy bar based on Andean grains with ant flour was formulated. The ants were obtained from the department of San Martin, district of Rioja, province of Rioja. Four different formulations were prepared with different ant flour concentrations: 13%, 17%, 20%, and 23%. Moisture, total fat, ash, proteins, fiber, carbohydrates, instrumental texture, and organoleptic analysis (taste, texture, and color) were performed. The developed cereal energy bar presented a 10 g protein content in 100 g of the final product. Acceptability was evaluated in adolescents and young adult populations. The developed cereal bars presented a high protein content, adequate organoleptic properties and high acceptability.
在秘鲁，食用昆虫作为一种营养补充剂或饮食中的主要来源，仅限于该国中部丛林地区，那里有食用蚂蚁的习惯。研制了一种以安第斯谷物和蚂蚁粉为原料的能量棒。这些蚂蚁取自圣马丁省里奥哈区里奥哈市。制备了四种不同配方，蚂蚁粉浓度分别为13%、17%、20%和23%。对其进行了水分、总脂肪、灰分、蛋白质、纤维、碳水化合物、仪器质地和感官分析（味道、质地和颜色）。研制出的谷物能量棒在100克最终产品中含有10克蛋白质。对青少年和青年人群的可接受性进行了评估。研制出的谷物棒蛋白质含量高，感官特性良好，可接受性高。
