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.
I'm a breeder specializing in high end line bred animals and my geckos really enjoy this added into their food.
The first cricket powder I tried from a different company was not good. Very fishy smell and taste. I was hoping for better with 3 Cricketeers. I’m so happy I gave them a try. I can put in two full tablespoons of power in my post workout protein shake without any bad tastes. It enhances my chocolate protein shake with a slight nutty flavor. I think I’m going to need to change my subscription to receive it earlier because I can now get my cricket protein without forcing it down. Thank you 3 Cricketeers!!!
This product tasted like sawdust. It could be because it's a healthy protein.
Your products are great for a nutritional boost—especially in the protein department. Tastes great and incorporates well with all types of food. Thank you!
We love the cricket powder--it has allowed our family to up our protein intake in a healthier and more sustainable way. Great nutty flavor--my son (8) eats it straight from the bag!
