WEBVTT -- English

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.044
Hi Everyone, it’s Robyn from cricket protein brand, Seek.

00:00:04.328 --> 00:00:06.767
You may have heard about or tasted our cricket protein snacks before.

00:00:06.769 --> 00:00:10.752
It has been really exciting to be at the forefront of developing a whole new industry

00:00:10.753 --> 00:00:12.753
- and, throughout the last year,

00:00:12.753 --> 00:00:14.753
we’ve learned a ton about

00:00:14.755 --> 00:00:17.780
how chefs, bakers and customers everywhere are incorporating cricket protein into their meals.

00:00:17.780 --> 00:00:19.960
And now, we are back

00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:21.960
with a revolutionary

00:00:21.961 --> 00:00:23.961
new development!

00:00:23.963 --> 00:00:25.963
We will be launching a full line of baking flours,

00:00:25.963 --> 00:00:27.963
blended with all-natural crickets!

00:00:27.964 --> 00:00:30.335
And we’re doing this in partnership with an amazing roster of chefs,

00:00:30.335 --> 00:00:33.917
including multiple Michelin Star and James Beard Award

00:00:33.918 --> 00:00:36.960
They will be creating original recipes using our flours

00:00:36.962 --> 00:00:39.768
for an incredible cookbook - the first ever of its kind.

00:00:39.770 --> 00:00:43.521
We have three blended flours

00:00:43.523 --> 00:00:46.578
that can be used cup-for-cup in your favorite recipes.

00:00:46.579 --> 00:00:48.579
all-purpose,

00:00:48.579 --> 00:00:50.579
gluten-free,

00:00:50.581 --> 00:00:52.581
and paleo.

00:00:52.582 --> 00:00:57.701
And for those looking to get the most out of cricket nutrition, we will also have a 100% pure cricket protein powder too, which is great for the keto diet.

00:00:57.703 --> 00:01:03.176
This is such an important effort as crickets are the most sustainable form of protein on the planet!

00:01:03.177 --> 00:01:06.308
They are much more efficient than traditional proteins in terms of

00:01:06.310 --> 00:01:08.310
land, feed, and water.

00:01:08.311 --> 00:01:10.587
and they emit virtually no greenhouse gases.

00:01:10.588 --> 00:01:13.855
Did you know that not all protein is created equal?

00:01:13.856 --> 00:01:18.621
Crickets are a complete protein meaning they contain all essential amino acids we need to

00:01:18.623 --> 00:01:22.784
keep us strong and health, a rarity for a non meat food.

00:01:22.786 --> 00:01:26.808
They are also high in iron, calcium, omega 3’s, B12 and magnesium.

00:01:26.808 --> 00:01:34.361
In fact, some research suggests that a special molecule in crickets even has the ability to boost our immune systems!

00:01:34.362 --> 00:01:37.093
Now, let’s hear from some of our inspiring chefs:

00:01:37.094 --> 00:01:39.094
For years, chefs have been serving up delicious meals,

00:01:39.096 --> 00:01:41.917
but it's also our responsibility

00:01:41.918 --> 00:01:46.656
to offer people more sustainable and more nutritious foods.

00:01:46.656 --> 00:01:51.337
It's exciting to think how easily one can give a meal a healthy boost!

00:01:51.338 --> 00:01:55.716
I know that in Mexico they've been eating different kinds of insects, I think, forever

00:01:55.718 --> 00:01:58.414
here at Claro we used the Seek cricket powder

00:01:58.415 --> 00:02:01.465
to add to our masa to enhance the tortillas

00:02:01.465 --> 00:02:04.695
and that added some protein to them and a great flavor.

00:02:04.697 --> 00:02:07.114
The flavor profile of the crickets was kind of new to us

00:02:07.114 --> 00:02:10.414
so we were super excited to experiment with them.

00:02:10.415 --> 00:02:13.770
they have a subtle kind of nuttiness to it and

00:02:13.770 --> 00:02:16.674
when we used the Pure Powder in our Earl Grey

00:02:16.675 --> 00:02:20.133
we found that the flavors really compliment each other

00:02:20.134 --> 00:02:22.191
in kind of a subtle and earthy way!

00:02:22.192 --> 00:02:25.413
To all you seekers out there-- by supporting us today,

00:02:25.413 --> 00:02:29.203
you have the opportunity to help course correct an entire food system.

00:02:29.204 --> 00:02:31.204
Together, we can achieve the mission of

00:02:31.205 --> 00:02:33.912
enjoying food that both nourishes us and the planet.

00:02:33.913 --> 00:02:36.867
With your help, we can work with a manufacturer to produce

00:02:36.868 --> 00:02:39.349
and package our flours in eco-friendly pouches!

00:02:39.350 --> 00:02:41.442
We will also be able to create a beautiful cookbook

00:02:41.443 --> 00:02:46.098
so you can enjoy delicious, 
craveworthy recipes from our all star team of chefs!

00:02:46.098 --> 00:02:48.526
We can’t for you to try our new flours.

00:02:48.527 --> 00:02:50.527
And remember, never stop seeking!
