## Description

Toasted crickets hand dipped in chocolate, a sustainable treat! CHOCOLATE COVERED CRICKETS (NO DAIRY AND NO EGGS, GLUTEN FREE) QTY: 19-25 Crickets Aprox .80oz Ingredients: Toasted Crickets, 85% Bittersweet Chocolate (cacao beans, sugar, cocoa butter, sunflower lecithin, vanilla beans), Sea Salt.

Review: Tasty - My niece loves when I surprise her with these! Taste is good for insect protein, and these really make a fun time at family get-togethers and parties, because everyone challenges others to eat them!
Review: Good Snack! - The flavor of these snacks is primarily dark chocolate and the crickets are not whole, which makes it a good introduction to entomophagia (eating insects). I'm not a big fan of dark chocolate, so I didn't like them as much as I had hoped, but I did manage to convince some friends to try them at a white elephant party. The flavor is not at all offensive, and the texture is fine. They come across as a gourmet snack, given the good ingredients and the price. If you like dark chocolate and you're looking to experience the "gateway bug," definitely give these a try!

## Features

- Don Bugito, the Prehispanic Snackeria, is a San Francisco based company focused on planet-friendly protein snacks, featuring delicious edible insects in savory and sweet flavors. Born at La Cocina, Don Bugito focuses on treats inspired by Pre-Columbian Mexican cuisine and is always working toward re-inventing ancestral food.
- These toasted farmed crickets are hand dipped in bittersweet dark chocolate and topped with sea salt. They are a great healthy and sustainable treat full of protein and fiber! All of Don Bugito’s crickets come from a farm dedicated to raising the highest quality insects for human consumption. Crickets are farmed and raised with a natural diet of bran and carrots.
- Despite the fact that edible insects are objectively delicious, for some, it requires a bit of bravery to take the leap. Edible insects hold huge potential as an ingredient to create new and delicious foods, but the more you know about the benefits associated with edible insects the easier and more enjoyable the experience becomes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chocolate crunch balls
*by K***Y on September 3, 2025*

My boyfriend loves to get protein anyway he can get it, and we’ve tried lots of salty/savory crickets before. He compared these to a crunch bar like chocolate rice crispies chunks. It’s way more chocolate than cricket, so it’s a little crunchy and taste's great. Mostly just fun to try together. Bit overpriced for the little amount you get in there.
