Swiss start-up plans to roll out organic insect burger across Europe

Switzerland-based Essento is turning edible insects into familiar food products through its partnership with the “world’s first” organic insect farm, Ensectable. In addition to its high protein bars, Essento has created a burger made from mealworms, vegetables and grains to appeal to European taste buds. The organically produced insects are pegged as a future food for their low carbon footprint and high nutritional profile, already enjoyed by some two billion people around the globe.
