Olympics Off To A Great Start - Athletes Are Already Boycotting Eating At The Olympic Village Because There's A Food Shortage, Served Uncooked Meat

Don't get me wrong, I understand the hilarious idea of the British athletes bitching about how meat is cooked. But is this really shocking? They are trying to get us to eat the bugs! We will not eat the bugs!

Paris Olympic officials attempted to offer more plant-based foods in an effort to reduce the Games' carbon footprint. While there is a variety of cuisine available to accommodate the tastes of different countries — and an abundance of baguettes in France — vegan meals aren't in line with what the athletes prefer to eat while competing.

How do you think plant-based foods would work for the Olympics? I get you want to be environmental friendly and all that. Great. But we're talking food for world class athletes here. You want to eat chicken, eggs, protein. Things that you need to succeed at the biggest stage. Now you have uncooked meat, shortage of that stuff and the Brits complaining about cuisine. We're not talking the Italians here, we're talking about the Brits. Do you know how bad the cuisine must be if they are complaining? 

So just to recap, Opening Ceremony hasn't happened yet and we have a food shortage, Argentina's manager claiming soccer player's jewelry was stolen, the Argentina/Morocco shitshow and cheating allegations against Canada women's soccer team. This is the Olympics! Nothing like bringing world class athletes out there in front of the world and disaster after disaster coming in. Everyone just make sure the American athletes have their own cook. I don't care the sport, we need to win gold in everything.
