Laura D’Asaro is the Founder and CEO of Chirps (@eatchirps), a company that creates food products, such as chips and protein powders, from cricket flour. Chirps’ mission to make “eating insects mainstream” started when Laura was studying abroad in Africa. In Tanzania, she tried fried caterpillars; in Uganda, she sampled grasshoppers; and now, in America, she is leading the sustainable food industry with the tagline “EAT BUGS.” We speak with Laura about her journey into social entrepreneurship, from starting a philanthropic lemonade stand at age 15 to raising over a million dollars on Shark Tank for her business.
