What are the I'm A Celebrity Bushtucker Trials?
A Bushtucker Trial is a task which the I'm A Celebrity contestants must complete in order to win meals for camp.
The more stars they collect during a task, the more meals they win.
If they fail to win any stars then they have to survive off basic staples - like beans and rice.
Each trial usually involves getting close to Aussie critters like cockroaches, maggots and snakes.
