Gerard Butler ate 27 burritos while shooting 'The Bounty Hunter'!

London, March 18 : Gerard Butler has revealed that he ate 27 burritos for a particular scene in 'The Bounty Hunter'.

The director of the film apparently took numerous shots before he got the frame perfect.

"It''s funny because there''s a way to learn to eat on camera when you just put small amounts in your mouth and make it look like you''re eating a lot. I''m not very good at that so that first day, I literally had 27 burritos," the Daily Star quoted him as saying.

He added: "It was a scene in a restaurant and I''m just stuffing them in, pouring hot sauce all over them too and chowing them down. Every scene I had to start with a fresh one. By the end of that day I was so ill, but it had to be real.

"I remember the director saying, ''You don''t have to eat in every scene.'' But I just said, ''Look, it''s important.''"
