US Gymnastics Legend Biles Dissatisfied with Athletes’ Village Food “American Food is Healthier”

“French food should be delicious, but the food at the athletes’ village is not that good.”

American gymnastics legend Simone Biles has expressed her dissatisfaction with the food at the athletes’ village for the 2024 Paris Olympics.

French media outlet Le Parisien quoted Biles on the 31st (Korean time), saying, “The food at the athletes’ village is not like French cuisine. American cuisine is healthier.” She added, “French cuisine is supposed to be delicious, but the food at the athletes’ village is not very delicious.”

In order to realize a low-carbon Olympics, the Paris Olympic Organizing Committee has significantly reduced the proportion of meat and doubled the amount of plant-based foods.

The athletes’ village is known for having Michelin star chefs who prepare the best dishes using eco-friendly ingredients.

However, issues with food provision, quality, and nutritional imbalances have been raised by athletes who have eaten at the athletes’ village cafeteria. Furthermore, there have been stories of having to wait in line at the cafeteria to eat.

According to the British media outlet The Times, Andy Anson, CEO of the British Olympic Association (BOA), pointed out, “There are food quality issues, such as not having enough eggs, chicken, and certain carbohydrates, and athletes being served raw meat,” and emphasized, “Improvements are needed within a few days.”

Meanwhile, the Korean team is receiving a separate diet. The Korean Sports Council dispatched 15 chefs to Paris, and athletes who want packed lunches can receive them twice a day. 파워볼사이트
