Chinese crispy crickets, buffalo worm stir fry and grasshopper noodles may sound like a Bushtucker Trial on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
But these are the new environmentally-friendly dishes on offer on the menu of a £20,000-a-year independent girls school.
The prestigious North London Collegiate School (NLSC) – which counts Rachel Weisz, Esther Rantzen and Anna Wintour as former pupils – is leading the way with meals that are kind to the planet.
The new menu came about after pupils, who vote for what school dinners they have with green tickets for yes and red for no, called for the school to become more sustainable.
The result is that two thirds of all meals now are vegetarian, with the kitchen even trialling edible insect dishes.
