Quote from Founder

I believe that even the smallest idea can spark global change. Through Amino Insecto, I turned a simple question—can insects change the future of food?—into a mission that educates thousands, empowers communities, and redefines what sustainable living can look like for the next generation."

Our Story

Amino Insecto was born from a simple question: Can something as small as an insect change the future of food?

What began as a youth-led idea has grown into a movement — redefining how people see nutrition, sustainability, and second chances. From creating fine-dining experiences with insect-based cuisine to launching social initiatives that empower former inmates to farm crickets sustainably, Amino Insecto blends science, social impact, and entrepreneurship into one mission: transforming the way the world eats while healing our planet.

Our journey has taken us from local communities in Thailand to international stages, partnering with chefs, researchers, and global organizations like FAO and UNEP. Every plate we serve, every campaign we launch, carries one message: the future of food must be sustainable, inclusive, and bold.

We are more than just a student project. We are proof that young people can lead change, inspire innovation, and build a more resilient future for generations to come.

Our Mission

To change how people think about food by promoting insect consumption. We aim to inspire curiosity and exploration, encouraging everyone to savor the delicious potential of edible insects for a greener, healthier future. Join us in challenging norms and embracing sustainability, one bite at a time.

Our Vision

Our vision is to encourage a shift towards more sustainable food choices that can help address pressing global challenges, such as climate change and food security.
