Tasty, healthy, environmentally friendly
They're very high in protein and I'm sure much healthier than nuts/crisps etc. These taste a bit nutty, it's a pleasant taste but not very strong. Of course, this opens up the possibility of seasoning them yourself, or adding them to other foods or smoothies for the protein. I tried blending them into some homemade houmous and enjoyed it.The price is relatively high for a snack, I suppose this is just because of low demand for insects as food.- can't really fault the product for that, and these are some of the cheaper insects available. I'll certainly be getting more in the future, especially if the price starts to go down!

Super nutritious and surprisingly tasty!
I bought these for a hiking trip, thinking that they would do for a single snack break. As it turned out, a modest handful was enough to satisfy, leaving me with a feeling that I had eaten something richly nutritious that gave me a boost. I also wasn't expecting the crickets to taste good, especially as these were the unflavoured variety, but I found them delicious with a subtly nutty aftertaste.Substituting meat protein for insect protein could help answer the urgent environmental need for humans worldwide to drastically reduce meat consumption, so I encourage every non-vegetarian to try edible insects at least once.

Smaller than SE Asian crickets, but not too bad..
They had no taste, so I cooked 2 packs with sweet chilli sauce and now they taste nicer. I could eat them with plain rice. The species I had in Cambodia and Indonesia were much bigger and tastier. However, this ones aren't too bad, I'd buy these again.

Seems OK, healthier then other snacks. Just some taste like they are burnt
They seem OK. Bit expensive for "4 servings" but to nibble on they will last me the full week (it's use within 7 days opening)Some of them taste nice but others taste bland. I cam across these by accident and since I've eaten escalopes years ago I like to try random new foods.I think the flavour is too bland for me personally. But I might try one of the flavoured or the smoked ones next to see.Some of them taste rather nice. But some jsut taste like I'm eating black burnt bits off the oven.If they were cheaper I would get these more often! I'm on a diet and I'd rather have crunchy crickets then fatty carb dense crisps! 😂Just need to try an u plain one or maybe lightly salted ones.

Sustainability
I think crickets are the future. I'm mainly, vegetarian but I don't mind eating these they seem humane. Tasty too. I like mine shaken up with some sea salt and paprika mild is nicer. And if because its okay in the bible Leviticus 11:20 they may be kosher.

Suprisingly tasty!
I know that insects have great potential for food security and that they are very nutritious, so I gave it a go. I was particularly surprised by the flavour, which reminds me of fried prawns! This is an excellent way of getting proteins without the terrible damage that meat production and even prawn fishing or cultivation entail. If you want sustainable proteins, that's a good place to look for them!
