In the last few years we've been hearing about a new food trend in the West — Hollywood Gossip eating insects. There have also been reports that say why some creepy crawlies make a good eat and how it isn't just a gimmick. There are many reasons stated for this fad — from bugs tasting delicious, being low cal and how they fill you up, to how eating bugs helps the environment.
Interestingly, there are celebs, too, who love to dig into a plate of dead grasshoppers or fried ants. Recently, actress Salma Hayek posted a video of her online with a dead cricket in her mouth before crunching it up and consuming it. Here's looking at some of the 'bug-eating' celebs...
This isn't the first time that Salma Hayek has shown interest in eating creepy crawlies. Earlier, in an interview with the American TV host, David Letterman, she mentioned that since her childhood, eating bugs have been a part of her diet and culinary heritage. Salma, born in Mexico, a place known for it's centuries-old tradition of eating bugs, loves little fried ants with a guacamole (an avocado-based dip known in Mexico). During the show, she even talked about the smoky flavour of grasshoppers and different recipes using worms.
