We have a strict company policy not to make products for people who wear bicycle helmets while walking on the sidewalk. If you want Boring Sauce, we're not for you. If you're tired of living in a shadow of fear, get some Ant Sauce in your life and start living in the light.
Is Vegan the one where you kidnap a bunch of animals from their home, bash 'em, mash 'em, boil 'em, and make a sauce out of them in a giant cauldron? Ant Sauce probably isn't "Vegan."
We have a 100% guarANTee on our products. If you didn't love Ant Sauce, it's likely due to all the ants escaping from your bottle or you just have a terrible palette. To get a refund, email theantsescapedagain@antsgourmet.com with your order number. This offer applies to orders under $100 and orders received in the last 30 days. Remember that personal attacks and rude insults will expedite the process.
We boil them in the tears of the ants still alive. Ants breathe through their skin so they are some of the cleanest animals alive. If they get dirty, they die.
We're a small independent startup in Texas with no government funding.
HOWEVER. We won't stop until we breed ants the size of chickens and convince the government to introduce ants into your water supply.
Billy Bob doesn't get a bathroom break until he makes at least 5 strangers cry. But it's official company policy to only be mean to the stupid customers.
We're guilty of a lot of things, but probably not this. Ants have been consumed by cultures on every continent on the planet (except ANTartica, ironically) and many people have prized ants as a delicacy in a variety of dishes and drinks.
You tell us. We exclusively use red and black ants. We do NOT use yellow, white, or green ants. They just don't taste as good.
Billy Bob grinds them up real good and filters the ants so there are NO chunks. Ant Sauce looks like it has black pepper flakes in it. Those are the ants. And if you're real lucky, you might get a few ant legs stuck in your teeth, which makes a fun surprise snack later.
Yes. All Ants Gourmet products have been lab tested and are gluten-free using the 20 ppm standard of detection. Eat ants not gluten!
If you're allergic to shellfish you may be allergic to insects (including ants).
We’re fascinated with novel flavors that most people have never experienced. Ants taste wildly different from each other. We’ve researched 15,000 known species to bring you the best.
Ants are also the greatest untapped source of sustainable food on the planet. Their biomass is comparable to that of humans.
And our chefs and scientists are smarter than you.
Yes! Much like how different cheeses boast a range of flavors, different ant species are similarly diverse. Many factors contribute to this including broad differences in size, terrain, climate, and diet. Ants are also brilliant little chemists who create unique blends of pheromones and acids.
Insects are one of the most sustainable food sources on the planet because they require a fraction of the resources that traditional livestock do. Consuming more insects in your diet is a simple way to adopt a climate-friendly lifestyle.
Unlike most insects, ants provide a unique, desirable flavor and can be used as a seasoning in many dishes. Most other insects are blande in taste and need to be mixed with other flavors to become more palatable.
