In the Season 3 Finale, we chat with Laura D’Asaro, co-founder of Chirps Chips who recently went on a 31 day bug diet and is here to tell us all about it. We also interview a reader/listener from Mexico, Mag Islas, who ate only mealworms and rice for 40 days, and she shares with us the mind-blowing result of her diet. Chef PV cooks up a delicious dish in the cafe, we get the latest European Buzz form our Friend from France, Florian Nock, and you won’t want to miss the Season 3 Finale of As the Crickets Chirp.
