starch packing pellets for bedding?

Hi,

This may have been asked before and I should search the forum, but....

We get packages where I work where the packing pellets are made of "vegetable protiens and starch", they look like giant beige cheetos. I witnessed somebody here eat a couple, so they aren't poisonous apparently. The company that ships stuff calls them "puffns."

If you add a little water they get nice and moist and soft. If you left them in a tub of water long enough they could completely dissolve.

Anybody used these in worm bedding? I have a big supply and it seems like something the worms might be happy moving through.
