    TAKEO's actual store opened in 2018 in the Ueno Asakusa area of Tokyo. Since then, the actual store has been very important as a place where we can communicate directly with our customers.<\/p>\n

    The number of people who are interested in insect food is increasing year by year. There are various reasons for coming to the store, such as "I want to give it a try," "It looks nutritious," "It looks interesting," and "Thinking about future food problems." Among them, I often heard the need for "insect foods that can be eaten on a daily basis" and felt that there was a need to develop products that were close to such daily life.<\/p>\n

    Most of the products that can be enjoyed at the actual store are gorgeous and have an impact, but the product concept of this "soybean and cricket cookie made by an insect food specialty store" is "more casual and more everyday insect food." To. " We have developed it as a product that is close to the lives of many people, aiming for deliciousness, ease of eating, and affordability that can be eaten every day.<\/p>\n

    By blending soybean powder, which is the main ingredient, a moist and rich texture is expressed. The cricket powder is kept at 3%, which has a faint scent, to achieve both the taste of crickets and the ease of eating. I hope this product will be an opportunity to incorporate insect food into our daily lives.<\/p>\n
