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.
Love it!
I LOVE your product! I have found the ground cricket powder to be a diet staple for nourishing my body through iron-deficient anemia. Your product keeps my mind and body in sync and energized.
I am a high level athlete and train hard. Before every game and workout a smoothie with 3 Cricketeers Pure Protein Powder is essential. I can literally run non-stop and I know it's the crickets. I have tried every powder on the market- others locally in the Twin Cities, the few other US farm brands and overseas. 3 Cricketeers Powder is the best on the market by a landslide. It has a nutty flavor. Other brands have a weird aftertaste, one had an awful sour taste. You wonder what the crickets are being fed or how they are farmed or made into the powder. While trying all different powders, I realized a lot of brands buy their crickets from Asia and a big farm in Canada. I'm guessing it's cheaper from Asia, but how can you certify a product you can't go and see. FYI- KNOW WHERE YOUR CRICKETS COME FROM! I'm beyond excited about incorporating 3 Cricketeers powder into more of my diet. Oh and the Adventure Bars are amazing!
My son has nut and egg allergies and we struggle getting protein into his diet. The discovery of cricket powder has been amazing. I add it to cookies, smoothies, you name it! We’ve tried a few different brands and 3C tastes the best by FAR. Highly recommend!
