What do roasted crickets taste like? What stands out most is actually the crunch, much like eating a piece of popcorn, only lighter and airier. Crickets also have a slight grainy taste, some say a saltiness, that makes them worth eating. Meal worms are similar, but not quite as flavorful. No question the top reason True Treats’ customers eat our crickets and meal worms is for the novelty factor – well worth a try.
