Salma Hayek may have just uncovered the next big rage in staying fit and eternally youthful in Hollywood. The actress posted a short Instagram video of herself feasting on a cricket.

In some parts of the world like Mexico (where Salma is from), it's perfectly normal to eat crickets. They're said to be loaded with protein and essential nutrients like iron and magnesium, but the very idea of it kind of leaves us gagging.
Salma, though, appears to thoroughly enjoy her creepy-crawly snack. She also looks amazing eating it, so there's always that.
