“They had a charter that said 60 percent of food in the village had to be vegan friendly and the day before the opening ceremony they ran out of meat and dairy options in the village because they hadn’t anticipated so many athletes would be choosing the meat and dairy options over the vegan friendly ones. The caterer had to rejig their numbers and bring in more of those products because surprise, surprise — world class athletes don’t have vegan diets… let me tell you, Usain Bolt, Michael Phelps, Roger Federer — none of those guys are on a vegan diet.” //

The Olympic Village in all of its eco-friendly glory was clearly not designed and planned by anyone who has participated in sports at a high level. But as has already been demonstrated, the 2024 Paris Olympics are not so much about the spirit of competition as they are about political correctness and, apparently, climate change. //
