Jessica Alba worried about burning a hole in her stomach

Asked about her diet, the brunette beauty said: "I try to always have a salad, and I always make my own salad dressing--it just tastes better. I'll often make a chicken quesadilla with corn tortillas--and gallons of hot sauce. Literally. It's like I'm trying to burn a hole through my stomach. It's so good. It's such a problem.

"I have five or six different types in my fridge. Anything habanero-Caribbean-flavoured, I'm down with."

The 'Sin City' star's eldest daughter Honor, seven, is also a fan.

She told Delish.com: "Honor wants Cholula on all of her tacos, on her breakfast--even her eggs, like breakfast tacos--and she'll straight pour it on chicken. If I make roasted chicken, she'll want Cholula on it."

Jessica, who also has three-year-old daughter Haven with husband Cash Warren, is relieved both of her children enjoy eating salads, especially with carrot and avocado.

She said: "They go bananas for it. They'll chow on that, even if they have their favorite pasta or hamburgers, or whatever with it, they'll eat that first. I don't even have to ask them to eat their veg."

While she is usually very healthy, the star admits she does have one guilty pleasure.

She said: "Nachos. I'm not much of a sweets person. I actually have low blood sugar and low blood pressure, and I get very woozy if I don't have enough salt ... when I do hot yoga, water isn't enough. I need to have salty water or I'll have coconut water."
