Episode Details

Aspire Food Groups ambitious cricket farm in London, Ontario, aimed to revolutionize protein production but faced numerous challenges. Despite initial success, including a $1 million prize from Bill Clinton, the farm filed for receivership by 2025. Public funds were invested, but the exact amount recovered remains unclear. The project struggled due to low demand, high prices, and operational issues. North Americans discomfort with eating bugs and the farms complex design contributed to its failure. The site has since been sold to Halali Group Holdings, but the full financial impact of the projects collapse remains unknown.
