Mexican actress Salma Hayek posted a close-up video which features her eating a cricket for her alleged dietary requirement. She uploaded the video last week.
She took a close-up shot as she rested the insect on the tip of her tongue and started chewing it. In the video she said, "These crickets are from Mexico, from Oaxaca, and they are eaten."
The Mexican actress previously revealed on
Late Show with David Letterman that she loved eating grasshoppers, reported Ace Showbiz.
"Look, I'm salivating. They're delicious," she had said. She admitted that she's a 'fan' of insects and she ate a variety of them.
"These little ants fried are amazing with a little guacamole. And the worms, there are many different recipes for those. The little grasshoppers have a smoky flavor to them. It's the way they cook them, and it's really good," she had said on the show.
