Alicia Silverstone has confused fans by posting a video of herself chewing her baby's food and then passing it from her mouth to his. The clip earned Silverstone the 'Jackhole of the Day' on Andy Cohen's Bravo show 'Watch What Happens: Live', with the presenter visibly grossed out by the Hollywood star's behavior.
Though it's not used often in the west, chewing a baby's food for them is reportedly common practice in the eastern world, according to the Huffington Post. Silverstone posted the video on the website for her vegan cookbook, adding the caption, "He literally crawls across the room to attack my mouth if I'm eating". On his show, Cohen said, "I don't even care that she does it.It's her baby. I just had to give her the Jackhole for posting it online and ruining my lunch. I was going to have a grilled cheese sandwich and I couldn't eat it!" Though the process has been likened to how parent birds partially digest their food and then regurgitate it to feed their young, a medal expert told Fox News, "'It doesn't seem like a hygienic practice".
Silverstone - who is also a staunch vegan - gave birth to Bear Blue at the start of May 2011 - he weighed in at 7lbs 15oz. At the time, the actress' spokesperson said, "Mom and Dad are completely in love".
