Do the vegans and vegetarians have a special diet?

There will always be a vegetarian and vegan option available for campmates with this dietary requirement.

The vegan and vegetarians receive a portion of tofu if the camp win the appropriate stars on the Bush Tucker Trials. Obviously basic rations of rice and beans are vegetarian.

Producers also provide vegetables to accompany meals to camp, as per their stars.

How the campmates divide up the food is up to them.

Have other vegans taken part before?

Vegans and vegetarians have taken part in the show since series one.

Last year, stand-up comedian Shappi Khorsandi revealed that was vegan shortly before joining the Jungle.

However, she ditched her plant-based diet for the show. Eventually, she did confess to falling ill, where she requested vegan-only food for the remainder of the show.

At the time, Shappi said: “I had meat, and I was really, really physically sick, five times in one hour. It was horrible.”
