Hello,
Hope everyone's new year has been going well! We here at Jiminy Co. are getting ready for the Charleston farmer's markets coming up within the next few months! In doing so, we are keeping busy creating new recipes and re-creating the ones from our last travels. We are trying to make some savory treats and some sweet in order to keep everyone intrigued and happy with our product. Our goal for this year 2016 is to turn Charleston onto the idea of edible insects. There has already been a major boom in awareness for the benefits of eating insects happening around the world. The idea has taken a huge leap just in the past year! While more than 2 billion people worldwide eat them daily, we still struggle in breaking through the misconception in others minds. Europe and the US were the biggest doubters when it came to the idea of edible insects. Last year, Europe agreed to allow insects as being a source of food. The US, as always, is still a little behind but with all of the companies starting out from NY to California, this idea is starting to spread! There are so many recipes now using these very sustainable, earth-friendly edible creatures that are just delicious. (You can find them online!) If you have any certain recipes in mind that you would like us to try out in our kitchen please comment to the blog or our Facebook page and we will! The next blog will be the pictures of the best ones we came out with along with the recipe. Have a great week everyone! Hoppy eating! (Below is a picture of the other edible insect companies that are getting big in the United States)
