Drying and milling of farmed crickets and mealworms into a ~65-percent-protein powder, or roasting whole, for use in bars, crackers, pasta and snack products for human consumption.

Where it's used

Insect protein snacks for human consumption
Cricket bars, mealworm snacks, cricket pasta and chips — high-protein (~65%) insect-based snacks positioned on a fraction of the land, water and feed of conventional protein, led by a consolidated European specialist-brand set (Jimini's, Crické, Seek, Sens) and Chapul after several US high-profile failures.
