Honestly I haven't tried it but I wouldn't mind certain things containing bug parts (on purpose) to make up for protein in them. And honestly that crunch sounds quite good.

I’ve eaten a few things made with powdered crickets. They were ok. I think treating it as a protein powder and adding it to baked goods makes the idea of eating “bugs” more palatable for most people.

Just use a plant based protein powder then. That's what I don't understand, why bugs when you could use soy or peas or some other plant based protein source? It's even more efficient, no animal cruelty, and not "icky" at all.
