Don Bugito

Don Bugito, the "Prehispanic Snackeria," is a San Francisco based company focused on planet-friendly protein snacks featuring delicious edible insects in savory and sweet flavors. Born at La Cocina, Don Bugito focuses on treats inspired by Pre-Columbian Mexican cuisine and is always working toward re-inventing ancestral food.

Their mission is to feature and share the amazing quality of food native to the American continent. In addition to creating tasty and healthy snacks, they conduct educational workshops to educate people about sustainable food practices and its health benefits. Despite the fact that edible insects are objectively delicious, for some, it requires a bit of bravery to take the leap. Edible insects hold huge potential as an ingredient to create new and delicious foods—and the more you know about the benefits associated with edible insects, the easier and more enjoyable the experience becomes.
