    - (Finebros) Today you're gonna be trying
  • 0:16 - 0:19
    an alternative form of protein.
    - Oh god.
  • 0:19 - 0:23
    NO!!! Hell. No!
  • 0:24 - 0:25
    - No.
  • 0:25 - 0:28
    You can just put this away.
    I'm not eating a cricket.
  • 0:28 - 0:32
    - IIIIII'm busy this day.
    I have to go do a thing.
  • 0:32 - 0:34
    - I don't know how down I am for this.
  • 0:34 - 0:37
    - Bugs is one of the things
    that I never do.
  • 0:37 - 0:38
    - All right, I'll try it.
  • 0:38 - 0:39
    Honestly, they're kinda cute.
  • 0:39 - 0:40
    - They're crickets.
  • 0:40 - 0:43
    I get a dozen large every
    week for my leopard gecko.
  • 0:43 - 0:44
    - It's a living an--
    (crickets chirping)
  • 0:44 - 0:46
    (retches) And it's making noises.
  • 0:46 - 0:47
    - I will--
    (cricket chirps)
  • 0:48 - 0:50
    (screams shrilly)
  • 0:51 - 0:53
    They're chirping!
  • 0:56 - 0:57
    - (Finebros) And now you get to taste it.
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    - Wait-wait-wait, they're in the cookies?
  • 0:59 - 1:00
    - They're in cookies?
  • 1:01 - 1:03
    This makes it a little less scary.
  • 1:03 - 1:05
    - I'm-- I'm concerned,
  • 1:05 - 1:06
    'cause it looks like
    just cookies and milk,
  • 1:06 - 1:09
    but I know it's not.
  • 1:09 - 1:10
    - Here we go.
  • 1:11 - 1:14
    Mm! There's no cricket in it... I think.
  • 1:14 - 1:17
    - Is there anything currently alive in it?
    - (Finebros) No.
  • 1:17 - 1:19
    - Everything is dead.
    Okay, that's all I wanted to know.
  • 1:24 - 1:25
    It's a chocolate chip cookie.
  • 1:28 - 1:29
    - Tastes pretty regular.
  • 1:30 - 1:33
    (crunching)
  • 1:33 - 1:34
    - Good.
  • 1:34 - 1:35
    - Okay.
  • 1:38 - 1:39
    (crunches)
  • 1:39 - 1:41
    It's okay. Yeah, it tastes pretty good.
  • 1:41 - 1:42
    - All right, I'ma go for it.
  • 1:42 - 1:45
    (crunching)
  • 1:45 - 1:46
    I taste something weird.
  • 1:50 - 1:53
    - It's really grainy.
    It tastes like a granola bar.
  • 1:53 - 1:55
    - Let's just do it.
  • 1:55 - 1:56
    NO! (snickers)
  • 1:56 - 1:58
    Aah! (whimpers)
  • 2:04 - 2:06
    Nothing? This just tastes like a cookie.
  • 2:06 - 2:08
    - It has a weird aftertaste.
  • 2:08 - 2:10
    - I thought you guys were
    gonna give me a full-on cricket
  • 2:10 - 2:11
    and be like, "There you go. Have at it."
  • 2:11 - 2:13
    - (Finebros) You just tried
    a sweet version of those little guys.
  • 2:13 - 2:14
    - No way. They're in it.
  • 2:14 - 2:17
    - (Finebros) Think you're ready
    to take them on face to face?
  • 2:20 - 2:22
    - Guys, I hate bugs.
  • 2:22 - 2:24
    - Right when I thought you guys
    were being nice to me.
  • 2:27 - 2:28
    I am not interested.
  • 2:28 - 2:30
    - I'm not doing that! No!
  • 2:30 - 2:32
    No, I will not eat this bug! I refuse!
  • 2:32 - 2:35
    - Aaaagh... aah-HA! I touched it!
  • 2:35 - 2:38
    No, I quit. I can't! I can't do it!
  • 2:38 - 2:39
    Lookit, there's legs on there!
  • 2:39 - 2:41
    - This is for you.
  • 2:41 - 2:42
    Ugh, god.
  • 2:42 - 2:44
    Mm. Mm.
  • 2:44 - 2:46
    Oh! Ooh!
  • 2:46 - 2:48
    - Okay, which one
    looks the least disgusting?
  • 2:48 - 2:50
    YOLO.
  • 2:53 - 2:54
    Yeah, it's pretty gross.
  • 2:55 - 2:57
    (crunching)
  • 2:57 - 2:58
    - Guh!
  • 3:00 - 3:03
    - (hacks) Okay, I did it. Take those away.
  • 3:03 - 3:04
    - I don't want to do this!
  • 3:04 - 3:06
    (crunches)
  • 3:09 - 3:10
    Ugh!!
  • 3:10 - 3:13
    - I like, I feel the guts
    in my mouth. That's so gross.
  • 3:13 - 3:16
    - I just feel little legs
    and wings like, (grumbles)
  • 3:16 - 3:17
    - It was not that bad actually.
  • 3:17 - 3:18
    I'm liking this aftertaste right now.
  • 3:18 - 3:20
    - Definitely better than
    I thought it was gonna taste.
  • 3:20 - 3:22
    I'm pretty proud of myself, actually.
  • 3:25 - 3:27
    - (Finebros) Congratulations.
    You just ate crickets.
  • 3:27 - 3:28
    - Yes!
  • 3:28 - 3:30
    - Victory! I feel so
    accomplished with my life!
  • 3:30 - 3:31
    - (Finebros) Crickets can be eaten whole
  • 3:31 - 3:33
    but also can be grounded into flour
  • 3:33 - 3:35
    and used for a variety
    of smoothies, oatmeal,
  • 3:35 - 3:37
    or even baked goods
    like the cookies you had.
  • 3:37 - 3:41
    - Okay, so there was
    no whole cricket in there.
  • 3:41 - 3:45
    - It's kinda creative,
    'cause I couldn't tell.
  • 3:45 - 3:48
    - Cookies? Those are like--
    it's like a little safe haven.
  • 3:48 - 3:51
    And when you put
    smushed-up crickets in there,
  • 3:51 - 3:55
    that ruins the entire safe little
    bubble you had for cookies.
  • 3:55 - 3:57
    And now I can't trust anything.
  • 3:57 - 4:00
    - What's the upside
    versus just regular flour?
  • 4:00 - 4:02
    - (Finebros) Some people believe crickets
  • 4:02 - 4:03
    are the future of protein,
  • 4:03 - 4:07
    an eco-friendly alternative
    to livestock and a sustainable way
  • 4:07 - 4:09
    to feed the over
    7 billion people on Earth.
  • 4:09 - 4:11
    - No! No, no, no, no.
  • 4:11 - 4:13
    - Moving to alternatives that we can farm.
  • 4:13 - 4:16
    So effectively and efficiently,
    space-wise, might be a good idea.
  • 4:16 - 4:19
    - People put so many
    GMOs and stuff in their body
  • 4:19 - 4:21
    that a cricket's natural,
  • 4:21 - 4:23
    so I'm sure they'll be fine
    with eating this as their protein.
  • 4:23 - 4:24
    Just not me.
  • 4:28 - 4:30
    - (Finebros) Lastly, do you
    recommend people try crickets?
  • 4:30 - 4:30
    - I do.
  • 4:30 - 4:31
    - I would not.
  • 4:31 - 4:33
    - 0 out of 10 don't recommend.
  • 4:33 - 4:33
    - Please don't.
  • 4:33 - 4:36
    - Try 'em. That aftertaste-- beautiful.
  • 4:36 - 4:37
    - HELL no!
  • 4:37 - 4:38
    - Yes.
  • 4:38 - 4:40
    I did it once, and I can say
    that I did it, and I'm happy.
  • 4:40 - 4:42
    - Try it as flour, because
    the cookies were just like
  • 4:42 - 4:43
    (kisses) baked goods.
  • 4:44 - 4:46
    All cookies are great.
  • 4:46 - 4:49
    - Thanks for watching the very
    first episode of Teens vs. Food
  • 4:49 - 4:50
    on the React channel.
  • 4:50 - 4:52
    - Put your mouths over
    the Subscribe button and "cricket."
  • 4:52 - 4:55
    - Bye, guys. Can I get
    another one of those cookies?
