JEREMY Clarkson revealed the surprising food he’s turned to after quitting Ozempic amid attempting to lose weight.
The Clarkson’s Farm star, 64, addressed changing his lifestyle following an emergency heart operation last year.
Writing in his column for The Times, Jeremy said he turned to weight loss drug Ozempic two years ago, but it “didn’t work”.
The TV presenter disclosed he has started eating a new delicacy.
He penned: “I’ve also discovered snail caviar which is a) white and b) no such thing.
“It’s actually unborn snails. But weirdly it does taste and feel like the real deal.
“So you can pop a teaspoon of that onto half a Ritz cracker and you have yourself the 21st century’s answer to a medieval banquet.”
Last year, Jeremy told how he underwent life-saving heart surgery following a “sudden deterioration” in his health.
The presenter said he experienced worrying symtoms such as feeling “clammy”, “tightness in my chest”, and “pins and needles in my left arm”.
The Sun columnist shared he was alerted to changes in his health while on holiday, after struggling to walk up the stairs following an “attempt” at swimming.
The Who Wants To Be A Millionaire host said he was then taken to surgery for urgent treatment.
A stent was inserted into the blocked artery to keep it open and restore blood flow to the heart.

Just odd,” and said he thought at the time, “Crikey, that was close.”
Jeremy previously admitted that he was “not allowed to have fun any more,” as the star was forced to overhaul the way he lived his life.
He revealed in his column for The Sun: “The worst problem though is diet. To cut my alarmingly high levels of cholesterol, I need to cut out, completely, everything I like eating.
“Bacon, sausages, beef, lamb, pork, butter, chips, proper milk, Cadbury’s fruit and nut bars and the interesting bit in an egg.”
Just weeks later the Grand Tour presenter told fans that he was doing “better than ever”.
This was after he was seen back at work at work on his 1,000-acre Oxfordshire farm with trusted right hand man Kaleb Cooper, 26.
Reacting to his weight loss, one online user stated: “You’ve lost weight Jeremy, you’re looking well. Hope you’re feeling better too.”
A second exclaimed: “Jeremy is looking SO MUCH HEALTHIER already!”
“Jeremy looks great. Healthier. Happy to see that,” noted a third.
While someone else wrote: “Looking slimmer Jezza.”
Jeremy will be back for a fourth series of Clarkson’s Farm, which will debut in May.
