Wallpaper's pick of the latest Grooming, Food and Tech

Eating bugs is the next big thing. In fact, if the swarms of daily op eds and lifestyle features are to be believed, chowing down on insects might be the future of our increasingly fractious food industries – a readily available and sustainable source of high-protein, low-fat sustenance.

Eating bugs is the next big thing. In fact, if the swarms of daily op eds and lifestyle features are to be believed, chowing down on insects might be the future of our increasingly fractious food industries – a readily available and sustainable source of high-protein, low-fat sustenance.

Jimini's is a new Parisian brand marketing a small range of dried savoury mealworms, crickets and grasshoppers, and cricket-flour chocolate and fruit bars. 

They're surprisingly moreish; while the smoked onion BBQ crickets slip down a treat, there's a singular weirdness in chomping through the beady compound eyes and crunchy wings of the Greek spiced grasshoppers (the squeamish, the packaging informs, can remove these). 

The cricket-flour bars taste identical to any other protein or natural energy bar, which is either a shame or a boon, depending on your preference.

After two years in the works, Jen Atkin has unleashed her much awaited hair care line, OUAI - meaning yes, ‘in that casual, Parisian way’, she explains. 

Abiding by her mantra that ‘good hair starts from within’, the collection of shampoos, conditioners and styling products offers a line up which promises to volumize, repair or smooth whilst deeply nourishing the hair folicle from the inside out. 

The LA-based brand's range boasts a roster of meticulously selected ingredients including fish oils and vitamin D which Atkin’s assures will fortify and strengthen, consequently producing healthy happy locks and an envy-inducing, effortless shine.
