Athletes at the Paris 2024 Olympic Village have voiced significant dissatisfaction with the food quality and variety, prompting criticism from notable figures like swimmer Adam Peaty. Peaty highlighted issues such as undercooked poultry and a lack of protein options, even claiming to have seen worms in his food. Coaches for gold medalist Keely Hodgkinson echoed these concerns, stating athletes have resorted to eating at a separate British Olympic Association base for better meals. While some athletes, like shot-putter Scott Lincoln, described the food as 'adequate' but reminiscent of school lunches, many others have taken to social media to share their negative experiences, with complaints about unseasoned meals and bland offerings. Amid these complaints, organizers have stated they are actively addressing feedback to improve the dining experience. However, the overall sentiment remains that the food does not meet the expectations of elite athletes preparing for competition.
