    Cricket Powder Showing Up In Our Food: Yes Or Yuck?

    Despite a lack of appetite in the public regarding the shift to insect consumption, globalist billionaires led by Bill Gates have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in the fake meat and edible insect industries.

    Celebrities have been enlisted to support the shift to insect consumption. Robert Downey Jr. recently appeared on Colbert to promote cricket protein. Nicole Kidman has also joined the crusade, creating a bizarre video for Vogue in which she attempts to make eating various insects appealing to the masses.

    The concept that meat-eating mammals could survive on insects was taught to children in the 1994 Disney film “The Lion King.”

    A meerkat and warthog teach Simba (a lion) to eat live insects instead of killing prey as they sing “Hakuna Matata,” which is a Swahili phrase meaning “there are no problems; don’t worry about it.”

    This is exactly what the globalists would like you to do — there are no problems, don’t worry about it, globalists will take care of your food supply. (source)

    As globalists push for greater control over the food supply, they are also pushing to normalize dehumanizing and gross food options.

    What kind of bug may I serve you?

    On Amazon, many of the products they are trying to normalize tell you what it is, right on front of the package. There are Mixed Bugs, Roasted Crickets, Larvets (which are meal worm larvae) in cheddar cheese and BBQ flavor, and more. They are not cheap… the giant crickets are $15 for half an ounce and the cheddar cheese ‘Larvets’ (mealworm larvae) are $6 for less than a tenth of an ounce.

    Cricket Powder or “Acheta domesticus” on the Label

    The word is that some companies are all in with adding insects to food. I have yet to verify that, but I would read the labels if we can still trust them..

    The snack item from Canadian brand Actually Foods states the puffs are “powered by crickets”.

    Each loaf of @RobertsBakeryUK cricket bread contains c336 crickets, which are dried, ground, mixed with wheat flour & grains and then baked to become a lovely tasty loaf with a crunchy finish.

    You are definitely going to eat bugs. You won’t be able to NOT eat them unless you go vegan. They’ll be put in our burgers and sausages to cut down on beef/pork costs, and you won’t notice.

    Insects Carry Many Parasites & Other Risks. Can They Make Humans Sick?

    The answer is YES.

    1. This study covers all you’d ever want to know about the topic: A Parasitological Evaluation of Edible Insects & The Transmission of Parasitic Diseases to Humans and Animals.

    2. And in this article, the “Summary of Food-borne Hazards for Edible Insects” includes a whole section verifying each of these risk categories:

    • Allergies

    • Microbial Risks

    • Parasitological Risks

    • Chemical Hazards (toxins and pesticides)

    3. Consumer Lab tested two popular cricket powders: Entomo Farms and Exo. They found one cricket powder heavily contaminated with arsenic, a carcinogen — 5x the inorganic arsenic found in the most contaminated rice. Crickets concentrate the toxins from their food, so whatever they were fed gets concentrated in their little cricket bodies. If arsenic is in their food, it is in them.

    4. And lastly: Chitin is the tough structural component of the exoskeleton of insects. This study, “Chitin and chitinase: Role in pathogenicity, allergenicity and health” seals a ‘NO’ verdict for me to ever eat this:

    “The exogenous chitins and chitinases provoke human immunity to generate a deluge of inflammatory cytokines, which injure organs (leading to asthma, atopic dermatitis etc.), and in persistent situations lead to death (multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythromatosus (SLE), cancer, etc.).”

    Meanwhile, Twitter (X) users weighing in on the bug snacks highlighted claims insects contain a substance called “chitin” which cannot be properly digested by the human gut, but can possibly contribute to illnesses.

    “Made with Cricket Protein Powder”

    ALERT! If you have a shellfish allergy, it is likely to cross react with cricket (acheta) protein causing a severe reaction. If you have an extreme allergy to shellfish and unknowingly eat crickets or acheta, this could cause an adverse response —up to and including death —without immediate medical attention.

    “Acheta domesticus” may be on the label –that means it’s Crickets. Some are hiding it by calling it “Acheta Protein” and promoting it as a great alternative to animal protein.

    Slowly, we are being taught to believe that eating sustainably-raised meat (that God commanded us to eat) is bad.

    But, insects will save the world, don’t you know!

    Read your labels, folks!

    God’s Word tells us, “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” (1 Corinthians 10:31) But it also tells us, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.” (James 1:5)

    Hi! I’m Jacqueline!

    Thanks for being part of this journey with me.
    Welcome to my own little place on the internet! Home is where I love to be. I feel there is no greater place to incubate souls. These days you’ll find me using my experiences here to write about herbal remedies and natural health research — a big passion of mine. But being a wife and mother is not easy. It is challenging and potentially lonely. I get that. I wanted to create a place to connect with and support other moms for creating a natural, healthy, and fulfilling home life.

      Thank you for the warning, Jacque! Just unbelievable – but NOT, at the same time!!! I have friends who eat out all the time and have no idea what is happening to the food supply. It’s becoming more and more dangerous to eat out, not knowing the ingredients in the food that you’re paying lots of $$ for! I will pass this article on to family and friends who need to know!

      First of all, thank you for this amazing post, again with so much helpful information. I have a friend with severe shellfish allergy so this is very relevant. This is just one of the travesties of the WEF and their cohorts (cannot call them anything else anymore!). I am appalled that Nicole Kidman and others are promoting eating insects?! I have written to our supermarkets to warn them that selling these insects in food without proper labeling could cause allergic reactions. But they are just deflecting the issue. ohh, you just have to read the labels! Nonetheless, I know each of us voicing their concerns with these companies and government agencies approving this type of “food” is going to make a difference. Most of all, I read an independent study that insects do cause the same amount of CO2 emissions as cattle and other livestock. The studies used to manipulate people are not based on longer-term studies (they are non-existant). I just tried to make a search and there are only “eat insects to save the planet” articles… no wonder people are brainwashed – some of them look sound… here is the link t article written in German – https://albert-schweitzer-stiftung.de/aktuell/insekten-als-nahrungsmittel?fbclid=IwAR3hVJIPFwUDFuyl8j4_gM18B7M1pmcRenmkzGwLmzvPacfmlNvT8pUOeBA?utm_source=nl23-02&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=w-nl – Here is an excerpt: Dangers to the ecosystem

      If insects are bred in industrial facilities and break out – for example due to a natural disaster or other unforeseeable accident – this can have far-reaching negative consequences: They spread in local ecosystems, feed on the products of regional farms and multiply uncontrollably in areas where they are not native. Since it is impossible to recapture insects once they have escaped, such an accident could have serious and almost unforeseeable consequences for local ecosystems.
      Protein supply
      It is a common misconception that insects provide more protein than plants. In fact, many edible insect species contain less bioavailable protein than, for example, soy or mycoprotein (from mushrooms). The production costs for insect protein can also be up to four times higher than for protein from these alternatives.

      The entire idea is disgusting, absurd and destructive… considering all the wonderful pulses, beans and other traditional food which is high in protein – perfectly adapted to human needs.. Ahh, we need to learn to discern.
