Facts: Thanks to their size, cricket protein takes 13x less land for protein production than whey-based proteins
Facts: Crickets are cold blooded. When they take in food they don’t use any of the energy to heat their body; it’s all transitioned into protein.
Facts: Crickets require 12x less food than beef, 4x less than pork and 2x less than poultry for the same weight yield.
Facts: Crickets require approximately 2000x less water to produce the same amount of traditional beef protein and 100x less than plant sources – and that’s not even considering water for feed production.
The Prairie Cricket Farms pure cricket powder is made from 100% finely milled roasted crickets. Our powder contains very similar protein content to that of whey (12 grams of protein in only 2.5 tbsps) with the added benefit of being a better option for your gut as it naturally contains prebiotic fibre and is free of dairy. Another amazing benefit of cricket powder is that from start to finish, its production has far less impact on the environment than more traditional protein sources.
Crickets are raised to prime harvesting age, frozen, boiled, roasted, and milled to a fine powder. This practice is efficient and clean, and is a process with extremely low emissions and little to no waste.
