1,000 Australian schools now offering experimental insect-laced food
Thousands more schools are expected to offer cricket-laced chips to children in Australia next year as part of a ‘sustainable’ food push. But studies on the health effects of bug food are still lacking.
The “edible bug” company Circle Harvest began selling its cricket corn chips to schools across Australia this year and expects the unconventional snack to be purchased by 6,000 schools by mid-2023.
