Paul Hollywood samples an oven-baked tarantula in a first-look clip from his new series, Paul Hollywood Eats Mexico.<\/p>\n

The new Channel 4 culinary series is billed as a three-week adventure, in which Hollywood explores the \u201ccharacter, culture and history of Mexico through its food and drink\u201d.<\/p>\n

In the short clip, released exclusively by RadioTimes.com<\/a>, the Great British Bake Off judge tucks into the creepy-crawly delicacy \u2013\u00a0but is less than impressed with its lack of flavour.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight. Tarantula. How do they cook this?\u201d he asks, before discovering that the large spider is baked simply in the oven<\/p>\n

\u201cDelicious, yeah,\u201d he says sarcastically, before biting into a tarantula leg. \u201cThere is no flavour,\u201d he adds.<\/p>
