Canadian snack foods now made with CRICKETS as primary ingredient 🦗


A food brand called ActuallyFoods lists Organic Cricket Flour as one of its ingredients.

The brand, from Canadian company Entomo Farms, has several new cheese puffs that they say are "actually" good for you and are made from crickets.

"We've ditched so-called 'natural' ingredients that are actually not as clean as they claim. Instead, we're making something you can feel good about, using unexpected ingredients that, although surprising, actually boast the health benefits you're looking for: like high-protein cricket powders, fava bean, and more," they write on their site.

Canadians, would you snack on these? 🍪

I don't know if Canadians are eating grasshoppers. . I used to eat. And fried grasshoppers are a delicious snack in China

The key is to normalise it now before it becomes the only food you'll be able to afford.

I've seen candied crickets before in specialty candy stores and on vacation. It's gross - with so many other options, I don't see why anyone would pick this. You can eat healthy things without eating crickets.

I've tried a few fried bugs several times in Asia. Not too bad after several beers. Apart from the bits that get stuck in your teeth.
