Yep, it's mealworm pupae.
My leos never ate them either... but they're good to save if you don't wanna keep buying mealworms. I just toss those onto a mealie gutload in their own bin and they turn into beetles in a few days (don't worry, they don't fly!). Keep the beetles together so they can mate & make more mealworms
I did that for a while before I left the reptile hobby. Now that I'm back, I'll probably start up on that again soon - ESPECIALLY since the pet store gave me those end of the bulk box, basically dead mealworms
