Crickets are probably Salma Hayek's secret for her gorgeous body.

The 48-year-old Mexican actress recently filmed herself devouring a huge cricket for all her almost 65,000 Instagram followers to see.

The short clip featured Hayek's mouth in full view with a dead cricket resting on the tip of her tongue. After a few seconds, she bit into the insect and a crunching sound was heard through the video. Later, the movie star smirked into the camera then said, "These are crickets from Mexico, from Oaxaca, and they are eaten..."

The video gained mixed reactions from Hayek's followers. Some were grossed out while some users were amused by the actress' diet choice.

The video post was followed by a close-up snapshot of the actress' meal, where the dead insects' bulging eyes were shown in full view.

The "Everly" actress was known for her adoration for animals. Earlier this month, she posted another clip featuring herself surrounded by a bunch of her pets. The recording showed Hayek lounging on her bed with two dogs and a pair of parrots perched on her shoulder. Watch the clip here.
