Avocado ice cream and Chinese hot pot are some of the best foods athletes say they've eaten at the WinterOlympics. Some were also eyeing the KFC — but holding until after competition to indulge.
Julia Marino, who took the silver medal in the women's snowboard slopestyle, has tried lots of different foods in Beijing. But when asked what is her favorite meal at the Olympic Village, Marino didn't hesitate for a second: dumplings.
"I've probably had like 200 dumplings since I've been here," she told NBC in an interview on Jan. 6."Just so many dumplings. I get back from the mountain - dumplings. It's the only thing I feel like is consistently always good." Julia Marino fills in the blanks about her favorite person she met in Beijing, her favorite food so far and how she passes time in the athletes' village.The San Francisco-born snowboarder representing the European island of Malta — its only athlete and first-ever snowboarder — can't get enough of the bao buns.
In fact, Spiteri loves them so much she packed a few in her jacket pocket before her first Olympic run in the halfpipe qualifiers. As she waited for her score, Spiteri was seen pulling a half-eaten red bean bun from her pocket and taking a big bite with a huge smile on her face.She told reporters after the race that she's been eating them for"breakfast, lunch and dinner."
