Angelina Jolie feeds insects to her son

Actress wants Maddox to stay in touch wih his roots by eating crickets

Angelina Jolie has encouraged her adopted son Maddox to eat insects.

The actress, 31, and her partner Brad Pitt bought the five-year-old a plate of crickets - a Cambodian delicacy - during a trip to his native country.

'I recently took Mad to Cambodia and it was the first trip there where he really understood it,' she tells The Sun. 'We took him to a restaurant in the middle of the night and he had his first plate of crickets.'

The high-protein bugs are popular in the South East Asian country. They are often served with guts intact.
