2017-10-12
hey what eatin crickets you've probably lived most of your life under the assumption that eating bugs is bad or at very least gross but these aren't your garden-variety crickets these guys were raised at a farm in Austin Texas run by the Aspire food group aspire uses data automation and robotics to produce crickets that are sustainable to grow and safe to eat the idea is that crickets have more protein iron and calcium than beef and take less time and fewer resources to produce but how do they taste we've got a few bags of whole roasted crickets and flavors like spicy hot sour cream and onion and totally taco to find out alright so I'm gonna start with the sea salt and vinegar I really don't get much sea salt or vinegar I get a whole lot of cricket totally taco totally taco if the taco were made entirely of crickets and nothing else I think spicy hot anyway pepper is good so all right I'm not looking at it too much it's not hot at all really a slain need to be if it says spicy got hurt me hot good Jesus does you'd still see his eyes I'm about to eat this whatever look him in the eyes and then he's gonna go right in sour cream and onion oh god there's so nope I'm just gonna stick with no in general yes but like none of these excited me enough flavor-wise to want no I mean I there are so many other options for like a healthy snack I can have sunflower seeds I can have popcorn I don't feel the need to have crickets so would you eat cricket jerky drink a cricket smoothie maybe even take a bite into some cricket avocado toast well 80% of the world's nations are to eat bugs so who knows this could be the next big food trend it's crunchy sorry I had a cricket head stuck in between my teeth
