Adam Peaty, a British Olympic swimmer, has raised concerns about the quality of food in the Paris 2024 Olympic Village, claiming that athletes have found worms in their fish. He criticized the organizers for implementing a sustainability plan that limits meat options, stating, "I want meat, I need meat to perform". Peaty described the catering as inadequate for elite athletes, citing long wait times and insufficient protein options compared to previous Olympics in Tokyo and Rio. While the Paris 2024 organizers have not confirmed the worm allegations and emphasize that athlete feedback is taken seriously, Peaty's claims have resonated with other competitors, leading some to avoid village food altogether. The British Olympic Association is reportedly responding by increasing food supply and hiring additional chefs to better cater to athletes' needs. As the situation unfolds, it highlights the ongoing challenges athletes face in maintaining proper nutrition during high-stakes competitions.
