Coating crickets in gut load. Anyone doing this?

I'm coating some of my crickets, not all, in the Blaudicadubia.com mega nutrient protein gut load. My panther seems to not mind.
Is there any problem with this? The only think I can think is that the cricket might need to metabolize some of the food to make certain nutrients available?

Anyway, seems like a nice little trick.
 
I'm not sure of that gut load, but if there really is a lot of protein in there, I wouldn't recommend doing that often. It seems like gout is a big concern with chameleons and feeders that have been gutloaded on too much protein.
