Chili Lime Cricket Mix
Chili-Lime Cricket Mix
Our roasted chili-lime crickets and locally sourced, organic toasted sunflower seeds are delicious, crunchy and tangy-with a kick! If you like spicy, this is your snack.
How Do We Make It?
We start with food-grade crickets grown in our urban farm. (We use proprietary cricket feed and processes to bring you the most delicious crickets available.) Then we roast them in the oven until they're good and toasty, combining them with a house-made spicy & tangy chili-lime seasoning and organic sunflower seeds.
How Do We Eat It?
We like these flavored edible crickets on their own, or as a topper on foods like guacamole, stir fry, and tacos.

Why eat crickets?
For the health of the planet and our bodies, crickets are the future. An ideal protein source, they have twice as much protein, emit less than 1% of the greenhouse gases, and use less than 0.5% of the water as beef.
Crickets are packed with protein, minerals, and pre-biotic fiber, making them great for your gut health and overall nutrition. While over 80% of the world's population eats insects, it's still uncommon where we're from. That's why we're introducing crickets through delicious chocolate treats and snacks.

What do crickets taste like?
Our food-grade crickets are raised specifically to promote a delicious eating experience, and taste different from any others you may have tried. They have a mild, slightly nutty flavor that reminds people of pumpkin seeds, almonds, and even puffed rice. They pair well with almost any food, but we like them with chocolate, caramel, and spices.
Got these at the zoo. Kiddo enjoyed and so we will shortly be placing an order when we get home!
Happy that I can nourish myself while eating snack food. Strong lime taste, modest chili flavor and no discernible heat, which is fine for my Midwest palate. I'm going to add some chopped dried mangoes to this and use the result for healthy trail mix.
