![The other one was used in red dye - this is cricket flour in cheese puffs. [680x667 - 367KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/ncLr9B.jpg){kind=link}
I thought this might be some sort of industry term for flour from a certain kind or mix of grains... But nope, they mean actual crickets, ground up into flour.

It's illegal to use slang or "industry" terms in ingredient labels. Someone has to be able to know, for a fact, if they're allergic to something or not.

Not exactly. They can be used as long as they're "common or usual". 21CFR101.4 I can't think of a good example, but if the term is in common use it's legal to use even if it does not literally describe the ingredient. I'm thinking something like red wheat, even if it's not really red. Or "cherrystone".
