While a handful of events have already gotten underway at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Friday evening's Opening Ceremony will mark the official start of the Summer Games. The Games will take place over the next 16 days until August 11, yet somehow organizers are already running out of food for athletes in the Olympic Village.
Whether it's transportation nightmares, inadequate beds for the most elite athletes on the planet, or general infrastructure issues, some things always go wrong during the Olympics. Running out of food before the Games are even officially underway is a new one, and we're not talking about the Olympic Village running out of certain fruits or vegetables, either.
There is a shortage of two of the most-staple proteins for 99.9% of athletes: grilled chicken and eggs.
According to the Times of London, some athletes have resorted to bringing packed meals back to the Village because they simply can't get their hands on any chicken and eggs.
The reasoning behind the shortage of two of the most-eaten items on planet Earth is a result of Olympic officials pushing more plant-based food items on athletes in hopes of reducing the Games' carbon footprint.

2024 Paris Hunger Games?
Well, the French claim to have the world’s best cooks, so couldn’t a few of their ‘Cusine Crusaders’ whip something together and cater that event? even of done at a discount, they would get undeniable wide publicity. Time to ‘loose the Mousse’.
Someone with video skills needs to put together a Hunger Games parody showing the comparative foods served officials vs those of the competitors.
Oh good gravy France, what the heck is wrong with you? I guess you don’t want the athletes from other countries to be able to be at their best. You think they don’t deserve decent food and shelter? The whole world is not vegan. And after the horrible opening ceremonies, I don’t know if I will ever watch the Olympics again.
It looks that way.
cheap a## France smdh
Who is taking the orders?
Klaus Schwab?
Put schizophrenics in charge, expect crazy results.
Seems like it.
Maybe an Olympian athlete or two will get red pilled from their experience in Paris.
Doubt it tho.
“Let Them Eat Crab Cakes!”
I’d say they’re both.
The eternal question, what ran out first, the chicken or the eggs...?
I have been watching the competitions on Peacock and one reporterette was saying that the Olympics are providing gourmet food. Since it came from NBC I am skeptical.
I only threw his name out because he given talks & stuff of how people in the future will eat.
Got bugs?🤔 Got some pesky garden slugs🤔...howsa about a nice fried dish of whatever thats on the menu😂 🌞
That was their "Bud Light" moment.
I always heard that the reason that the French use such elaborate, sauces is to hide the horrible crap they put on the plate first.
I’ve always wondered about that.
