Crickets as food makes sense because there are serious health and environmental benefits. Crickets are healthy offering real animal protein that includes all 9 essential amino acids, more calcium than milk, more iron than spinach, a strong source of prebiotic fiber, more than 3x more antioxidants compared to orange juice, high in bio-available B12, and much more. Raising crickets for human consumption uses much less land and water than traditional meat and they’re grown humanely and sustainably.
