https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/ALL/?uri=CELEX%3A32023R0005

A European Union regulation allowing house cricket powder to be mixed with all sorts of food products.

Worrisome facts:

• For fuck's sake, it allows putting crickets in pizza.
• It provides permission to do this for a single company during five years (Cricket One Co. Ltd)
• It specifies that, if any competitor wants to get the same permit, they cannot reference any of the scientific research presented by Cricket One. Bring your own science, you lazy scumbags.
• It doesn't mention anywhere if producers need to disclose in the packaging that this cricket powder has been mixed in the food.
