The wonderful food that Turin, Italy is famous for is not making its way onto the plates of the Olympic athletes. In
fact, there have been numerous complaints about the food, including accusations of food
poisoning from the Canadian curling team. Athletes from all over the world, including America and Lithuania,
are saying that they "expected more from an Italian kitchen" and wonder "how can you
screw up pasta?" Because the Olympic Village is not in a central location, with athletes spread over many
villages, the food is not all being prepared by the same kitchen staff. Some athletes are fortunate enough to have a
personal or team nutritionist who will prepare all their meals, while others can only look forward to the time that
they can spend in Turin itself, sampling the city's non-Olympic offerings.
