Not sure if I know, as I've been ordering these mealworms for several years now, and never have had anything other than dried mealworms in the bags. However, I also always have live mealworms that I keep for my chickens, and one of the things you have to provide them with to keep them alive are small chunks of potatoes, which they use for moisture. As the potatoes dry up, they do become very hard and do look like gobs of clay. Perhaps they weren't sorted out before your bag was packed? Hope this helps.
