Jamaican athletes like 100m sprint star Usain Bolt will try their level best to avoid a case of the runs… by flying over their own food to London during the Olympics.
The team will fly in nearly 3,000 bananas, 30 goats’ heads and 20 pigs’ tails to their UK training camp in Birmingham – a city already teaming with Caribbean food outlets.
Four years ago at the Beijing Olympics the team couldn’t stomach Chinese food and were reduced to chomping down burger.
