Why the 2024 Olympics are reportedly scrambling for eggs



National Post - July 25, 2024


When it came to food during the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Usain Bolt knew what he liked, and he liked a lot of it. The world’s fastest man estimated that, during those Games, he devoured approximately 1,000 Chicken McNuggets from McDonald’s.


The math: He was there for 10 days and ate 100 of the crispy chicken chunks a day.


“At first I ate a box of 20 for lunch, then another for dinner,” he wrote in “Faster Than Lightning,” his 2013 autobiography. “The next day I had two boxes for breakfast, one for lunch and then another couple in the evening. I even grabbed some fries and an apple pie to go with it.”


Food is important for Olympians, and as the curtain rises on the 2024 Olympics in Paris, it has been reported that it is also in short supply.
