Serious question.
In order for crickets to be food, they have to be contained. How are they fed and watered? How much power and water go into growing and processing the crickets for consumption?

Corn, soy, and flax are fed to the crickets; according to the video.
Some crickets are left whole and sent for seasoning and packaging, but the majority of crickets from America's largest cricket farm produces only 500 LBS of cricket powder PER DAY.
The current price of cricket powder is 45x the cost of all-purpose flower.
If crickets were as delicious of beef, I might be down with this, but there is NO WAY you can get more out than you put in. You can't ignore the cost and environmental impact of the corn, soy, flax (all human food crops), water, and power that went into growing and processing the crickets. This is just as stupid as thinking electric cars are so green; nevermind the cost of power generation (mostly from oil/gas/coal) and manufacturing (digging up TONS of earth to produce electric batteries and such; like using diesel-burning machines to do it).
I wonder what kind of emissions crickets have.
Just another control scam.
