We Pitt-y them

When we were school-children, our packed lunch box would consist of a ham sandwich, a carton of juice and a two-fingered Kit-Kat. Maybe even a piece of delicious fruit if we were really, really lucky. We weren't the children of Hollywood's most showbiz couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, though. If we were, we would definitely have expected a full blown four-fingered Kit-Kat. But the Jolie-Pitts don't even feed their children Kit-Kats. They don't even feed their children food. They just feed them insects, apparently.

Angelina and her kids are oh so cultured that her sons' favourite food isn't Haribo, it's crickets. Yummy, delectable, mouth-watering crickets.

You just want to eat it off the page, don't you?

Our mouths are too busy salivating to speak, so we'll let Angie tell you all about her kids' fave treats:

"My boys love to eat crickets. It's their favourite thing... When I first gave [crickets] to them... I wanted them to not be turned off by something that wasn't (part of) their culture. So I bought them... and they ate them like Doritos."

What flavour? Chilli-heatwave? Cool Original?

"They wouldn't stop and they brought to-go boxes home. And then I had to actually ban the cricket eating at a certain point because I was afraid they were going to get sick from eating too many... But they're good!"

Hmm, yeah, we'll only believe that until M&S start doing them in their meal deals.
