It has been reported that the athletes in the Olympic Village have been served raw meat, causing Team GB to take matters into their own hands for the Paris 2024 Olympics. Despite the official start of the games being just days away, there have been several controversies surrounding the event.
One of the major issues has been the catering in the Olympic Village, with athletes complaining about food shortages and poor quality meals. Team GB's chief executive, Andy Anson, expressed his concern, stating that there have been shortages of essential foods such as eggs, chicken, and certain carbohydrates. He also revealed that raw meat has been served to some athletes, which is unacceptable.
While the caterer, Sodexo Live, has promised to address these issues, the British Olympic Association has taken action to ensure their athletes stay in top condition. They have hired Michelin star chefs to handle the catering in the Village, and have also rented out a catering college in a nearby suburb for their athletes to use as a performance base.
However, due to the ongoing issues with the food in the village, the athletes are now mainly using the performance base for their meals. This has led to additional chefs being brought in to meet the high demand. Anson explained that the athletes are even packing meals from the base to have for dinner, as they do not want to risk eating the inadequate food in the athlete restaurant.
The problems in the Olympic Village do not stop at the food. Teams have also had to deal with the absence of air conditioning, leading to thousands of AC units being hired by various teams. This is due to the eco-friendly water pumps installed in the Village, which have not been able to provide enough cooling. Additionally, there have been rumors about the beds in the Village being made of cardboard and designed to discourage athletes from having sex. However, athletes like British diving legend Tom Daley have debunked these claims.
Overall, it seems that the Olympic Village has faced numerous challenges in the lead up to the games. While efforts are being made to address the issues, it is clear that Team GB is taking proactive measures to ensure their athletes have the best possible experience and are able to perform at their best.
