It's been scientifically proven that crickets (and most insects for that matter) are mostly protein and full of nutrients. So why are you guys still eating expensive store bought meat that causes cancer?

I eat a 3 plates of stir fried crickets a day to meet my daily nutriention requirements, and it cost less than 20 dollars a day. Sometimes I even eat them live if I want a juicier treat. Crickets are cheap and delicious, you can even raise them yourself all they eat is cardboard.

Anyone else eating crickets?

One thing to note is be careful when swallowing them whole, as sometimes they like to hope back up out your throat and that can make a mess of your food.

Good feed for poor people.
Makes beef cheeper.

Also if you're wondering where to get live crickets for your meals just go to your nearest bait shop, they sell them for about 10 dollars for a large tube.

It's way more expensive compared to meat or whey per gram of protein.

They literally cost 1/3 of your average beef/chicken price.

Not in my country.
If you buy those things pre-killed or in powderform it's too expensive. I'm not growing and killing those fuckers myself.

I ate crickets recently in Thailand. Not bad. Tasted like chips (french fries) but got sickening after a while. I probably couldn't eat 50g worth.

I get my nutritional requirements with oats, milk, ground beef, rice and frozen green veg for 40 dollars a week

I really wish someone would start mass producing them for human consumption. potentially they are GOAT when it comes to nutrients, price and ecological impact. unfortunately the market just doesn't seem to be ready because of the yuck factor, so everything you can buy is fucking expensive as fuck.

>Less than $20 a day.

Ok cool so that could mean anything between $1-$19 a day. I'm eating for about $4 a day on a 3500 cal bulk. I agree crickets should be more popular in terms of eating but your pricing argument is written so poorly.
