One of the highlights of the television year will soon be with us, not just I\u2019m A Celebrity\u2026Get Me Out Of Here! But the legendary Bushtucker eating trials!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Uri Geller eating the first ever Witchetty Grub in Series One back in 2002, to last year when Noel Edmonds and Harry Redknapp both tucked into Sheep Brains\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OddsMonkey has looked back through the top challengers, and picking out the best and worst Jungle treats that celebrities have eaten, and compiled a nice caloried menu! And for ease of use we have compared that to a Big Mac\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A McDonald\u2019s Big Mac comes in at 563 calories \u2013 but how does that compare to some of the great Jungle snacks we have seen \u2013 well you can see from our very own Jungle menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Let us look at who has eaten what over the years\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sheep\u2019s brain (1lb) \u2013 665 calories \u2013 eaten by Harry Redknapp and Noel Edmonds in 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harry and Noel competed against each other and both had to eat the Sheep\u2019s Brain \u2013 but they might not of known just how many calories they were taking in, more than a Big Mac! And it is also more than Harry\u2019s beloved Jam Roly Poly which comes in at about 400 calories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fish eyes (one) \u2013 123 calories \u2013 eaten by Kendra Wilkinson in 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fish eyes are becoming a regular treat on the Jungle menu, but they are not the easiest of things to eat, and at 123 calories they make an impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Camel Hump (100 grams) \u2013 75 calories \u2013 eaten by Jimmy Bullard in 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Camel Hump is regarded as a delicacy in some parts of the world, but that is not what Jimmy Bullard was thinking back in 2017 \u2013 although the fact it is low in fat and calories might have helped!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kangaroo penis (100 grams) \u2013 247 calories \u2013 eaten by George Takei in 2008<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most dreaded Jungle delicacies \u2013 the foreboding penis has been eaten by a number of celebrities. Star Trek legend George Takei took on the challenge one of the most memorable eating tasks, although it was not without it\u2019s calories almost worth half a Big Mac!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mealworms (100 grams) \u2013 223 calories \u2013 eaten by Rebekah Vardy in 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mealworms are now even available around the UK as a snack, although not sure Rebekah Vardy will be rushing to find them again after successfully tucking into them back in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vomit Fruit (100 grams) \u2013 357 calories \u2013 eaten by Amir Khan in 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vomit Fruit has a horrible stench and taste, but Boxer Amir Khan did well as he downed the fruit in a shake and he may well have been surprised to find out it contained a whopping 357 calories, getting towards the equivalent of a full Big Mac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lamb testicles (one) \u2013 68 calories \u2013 eaten by Nadine Dorries 2012<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nadine Dorries is entering the General Election in the coming weeks, but she had to endure some tough task in the Jungle back in 2012, but few worse than when she took on a Lamb testicle \u2013 although at 68 calories it was far from being bad for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pig snouts (one) \u2013 309 calories \u2013 eaten by Malique Thompson-Dwyer in 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malique Thompson-Dwyer had to endure one of the toughest challenges with Sair Khan, and one of this eats was a Pig snout \u2013 it looked and tasted disgusting and there is a good reason you don\u2019t see it on menus \u2013 apart from ours!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pig anus (one) \u2013 115 calories \u2013 eaten by Freddie Starr in 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comedian Freddie Starr did not turn his nose up at anything during his stay in the Jungle, and his \u201cBacon Butty\u201d was no problem for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mouse Tails (One full mouse) \u2013 35 calories \u2013 eaten by Sair Khan in 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another horrible creation was mouse tails acting as spaghetti \u2013 but Sair Khan completed it well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deer Shake (kidneys, liver, blood) \u2013 544 calories \u2013 Carl Fogarty in 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2014 winner Carl Fogarty endured a really bad drinking challenge with his Deer Shake, but he came through it with flying colours like he did on the track, and calories wise it was one of the richest we have ever seen \u2013 just about an equivalent to a full Big Mac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Witchetty Grub \u2013 245 calories \u2013 eaten by Uri Geller in 2002<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The very first eating challenge in I\u2019m A Celebrity history, despite being a vegetarian Uri Geller took on the challenge and ate the Witchetty Grub \u2013 which can be a staple of the Aboriginal diet in the outback!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
