About Coast Cricket Protein Bars
Coast Protein is a small startup with big goals, the founder wants cricket protein to become a mainstream staple of the Canadian diet.  After much research on the detrimental outlook for food production in the coming years he decided to focus on this budding solution.
 
While in many countries Cricket and insect consumption is normal it is slowly taking root in North America.  With water availability becoming a key issue for future generations Cricket protein is proving to be a promising alternative.

Products and Ingredients:

While eaten fried/baked in whole form in many countries, North American providers are most commonly choosing to introduce Cricket protein in bar or powdered form.  Mainly to overcome the negative stigma associated with eating bugs and to show new and hesitant consumers that they can still taste great while providing key nutrition.
 
The main benefit to Cricket flour is that it provides a complete protein, containing all 9 essential amino acids, while requiring much less land, water and production resources when compared to traditional sources of animal protein.
 
Coast Cricket Protein Bars source their cricket flour from ENTOMO farms, and combine it with natural ingredients to form delicious bars.
