The sight of these tables in the NTU canteen covered with fast food leftovers caught the eye of STOMPer vida. Vida thinks most of the mess was left behind by YOG athletes, and was amused at the irony of world-class athletes feasting on fast food.

The YOG athletes are staying at NTU, which is the designated Youth Olympic Village.

The STOMPer tells us over the phone:

“I’m working for the YOG in NTU, but I'm not a volunteer.

“I saw this mess at one of the NTU canteens last night around 10pm.

“There’s no rule stating that athletes need to clear up after meals.

“I thought it was funny that almost everyone had fast food, since most of the diners were probably YOG athletes.

"They're athletes, so why are they eating fast food?"

Mcdonald customers also did the same thing everyday, this stompers must be very "Sua Ku".

Premium food for foreign athletes.

Dog food for local volunteers.

You crazy. If ask foreign athletes to clear trays themselves, what are the volunteers for?

This explains the large amt of wastage observed of the $26 per head buffet. Obviously while you can eat like a pig, it is not very good with many preferring to buy Macs.

they feast on fast food in order to run , swim and cycle faster. simple logic

Clearing tray is strictly voluntary..... they are no law against not clearing trays or clearing trays.

If the $5.5M caterer is any good, why then are the althlete have to order fast food enmass ?

BTW, McDonalds is one of the official sponosr right ? and that brand protection is practicesd during YOG, such as Coke enforced a no-other-brand drinks policy.

WHY THEN IS CANADIAN PIZZA ALLOWED IN THE YOV ? ARE THEY ONE OF SPONSOR TOO ? SEE THE CP BOX OON THE NEAR-END TABLE ???

Obviously the rule only applies to local volunteers and school kids !
