Maite is joined by artist Monica Martinez, the founder of Don Bugito, a pioneering edible insect business that blends design, sustainability, and food innovation. The conversation moves between industrial design and the realities of industrialized food systems, highlighting Monica’s work raising edible insects on an organic farm in Oakland, CA. They trace the deep culinary roots of insects in Mexico, explore flavor combinations grounded in memory, and how these traditions are being translated for U.S. audiences amid shifting cultural perceptions of food. The episode closes with a reflection on where insect-eating may be headed in the next 10 to 20 years.
