London, June 23 (IANS) Hollywood actress Salma Hayek says she enjoys eating ants, worms and grasshoppers.

The ‘Lonely Hearts’ star says there are many delicious recipes in her native Mexico, reports thesun.co.uk.

‘We eat bugs and we have many recipes for some of them. Escamoles, which are the eggs of these little ants, are amazing (when) fried with a little guacamole. And there are many different recipes for worms,’ said Hayek.

She goes for bugs only occasionally. ‘Not routinely but, look, I’m salivating… they’re delicious.’
