Angelina Jolie Shares Shocking Details About Kids’ Diet; Daughter Shiloh Loves Tarantula, Bugs

Angelina Jolie shares a shocking detail about her children’s diet and Shiloh’s love for bugs.

A clip of Jolie preparing bugs as meals for her kids was shared by BBC News in 2017 when the actress was still promoting her film “First They Killed My Father.” According to Brad Pitt’s ex-wife, her children are fond of eating bugs.

“I think it’s always been a part of the diet, the bugs, but then I think there is a truth to the survival during the war of course. When people were being starved, they were able to survive on things like this and they did,” Jolie said when asked if she had prepared and ate bugs before.

The “Maleficent” star admitted that she started with crickets and beers. Then, she moved up to tarantulas. Jolie showed to the camera how to fry a scorpion and shared it with her children who seemed to love it, too, especially Shiloh. Jolie added that the flavor was “really good.”

“They’re used to eating scorpions, especially Shiloh,” Jolie said about her eldest child with Pitt.

“Shiloh loves a tarantula, loves a bug. They can all eat a bag of crickets like a bag of chips, so they’re all used to it. But I’m learning to cook them better with a little more flair and seasoning.”

The clip received various reactions from fans. Many were impressed with how Jolie raised her kids. One wrote that she was never a fan of Jolie until she saw the video because she loved how Jolie teaches her children to eat like the natives. Another added that Jolie has “bigger balls than any man” because he himself couldn’t think of eating spiders.

Meanwhile, some also criticized Jolie’s move for introducing Shiloh and her siblings to the exotic food. One even said that the full custody of the children should go to Pitt.

“Full custody should go to Brad. She's a nut job,” @OllieLove44 wrote.

“Jesus! Times must be hard since Brad left. What's for dinner mum? Insects. Off her bleedin' trolley,” @onemoveahead added.

Meanwhile, another Twitter user defended Jolie. According to @lvtoure, Jolie teaching her kids to eat bugs was something that the humanitarian philanthropist has been doing years before she and Pitt divorced. Thus, claiming that Jolie did it because of Pitt was “inconsequent.”

In related news, there were claims that Jennifer Aniston reignited her feud with Jolie following the former’s sweet reunion with Pitt at the SAG Awards. However, fans should take those reports with a grain of salt as Jolie is moving on and won’t let Pitt and Aniston’s thing sting her.
