Early taste of @RobynShapiro's new cricket bonbons - they are delicious. Have you had #insect foods before?
Crickets are all the rage because they are 60%-70% protein and take much fewer resources to grow and process, unlike other popular sources of protein

RobynShapiro Thanks for the great feedback last night! In addition to having loads of protein, crickets are also high in omega-3 fatty acid, iron, fiber and even calcium.
