I saw a comment on IG where the French said when they heard who was in charge of the Olympic's village food, they laughed because that food organisation is supposed to be one of the worst in the nation
This is the country where the Micheline guide was born!! French cuisine is held at such a high standard all over the globe...how can they drop the ball this bad??!!
They think is better to feed athlets with raw pasta and rice to make them to go to a restaurant and spend some money! BTW Michelin stars are the biggest stupidity in the world. I want to eat not to look at a empty plate with 3 drops of sauce and 15 grams of meat!
There is the cuisine of 200 countries prepared following the instructions of each Olympic delegations. Americans choose junk food among the huge option then complain it's not French food and it's not good. Plus the others not balancing their meal. Who eats a croissant plus a crepe plus some sort of sandwich? 🤦
Cardboard beds, no air-con, bad food, dirty river, and many more... Everything about this olympics is sooo pathetic, and athletes deserve better treatment!!!
The cardboard beds are validated since the Tokyo Olympics, there is Air con and the River is clean, the athletes themselves are tired of repeating it. What's pathetic is people compiling rumours and isolated events to then talk about the Olympics.
@@puccaland the cardboard beds are ok, the mattresses are the problem. the countries had to bring their own air con. the river isn't clean lmao. France is a third world country with money.
@@m1sh474 That's your head which is sub par. The mattresses aren't a problem. They are new and some athletes don't like hard mattresses, some prefer hard mattresses. The whole majority of the athletes didn't complain. You decided to cherry pick the 6 athletes who have a problem with hard matresses. Countries didn't have to bring their AC. When Paris said there wouldn't be AC because they put in place other solutions to keep the buildings cool, some countries which have a AC culture and don't understand that weather and climate are different worldwide said that they would bring their AC units. Then the other countries said OK but what if there is a heatwave, phenomenon more and more frequent. Paris said OK then we will provide AC you can book them from the Olympic village catalogue. Last year already 2500 AC had been booked. The River is clean which was confirmed by the triathlon athletes and their staff plus the IOC tests. Who are you to pretend that you know better than them?
The only reason theres no major outburst from countries is because its france. Imagine if it's a non European country doing this. The knives would be out
The only reason theres no major outburst is bc who gives a flying fuck. the food is healthy, its not spoiled, its normal edible food. Like sorry americans that the food is not full of E numbers. they even have an entire halal section... like wtf else do you want
Also the muffins there are the same kind you can buy in macdonalds in France or in school cafeterias. But I gotta say, that is by far one of the greatest desserts you'll eat.
It's not a holiday. It is *Functional* ingestion, not *Flavourful* ingestion. Athletes require only the raw materials for their nutrition plan. Flavours can be freely added thereafter (as seen in video).
Imagine you were an athlete who manage to reached the Olympics. You were expecting to be treated like a champion. However, you were served a food fitting for a prisoner.
Meh. My school's one dud was the pizza It had NO sauce and was bland AF for the majority of my freshman year. Thankfully it got better when I was a sophomore but it was BAD. Like putting me off pizza type of bad. Literally just stiff bread with a little cheese.
How embarrassing for France. Olympians going on social media to say, show how awful the food is. It's really very sad they aren't getting the food requirements they need as athletes. It's part of the country's duty to look after all the teams, countries.😢
Embarassing for IOC, not France. The French are not responsible for the fact that the IOC only booked cheap accomodation and catering for their athletes. France has plenty of high end establishments, but if your organisation choses to order from cheapest to best then this is what you'll end up with.
And inviting all the US ”celebrities” costing millions and millions. So they seem to be more important than the athletes? Shame on you who arranged all this shit. I hope the closing ceremony will not have any speach thanking France for this ”great” Olympics, cause it’s not.
Sodexo is one of the nastiest cafeteria companies ever. They were our company in college for the dining halls and I cannot express how gross and sad (and unhealthy) the food was.
College/University Cafeteria Foods are supposed to be affordable and filling to all. Not enjoyable or pleasurable for those who can afford other options.
Paris is a disgrace for this. The fact that this is a country known for some of the best food on the planet and they would represent themselves like this is so dishonorable

I know a guy who was an assistant to a big agent in Hollywood for a short while. He was put on a private jet to go pickup a shirt from the dry cleaner. It's insane.
Berlin 1936 hosted by Adolf Hitler, Munich 1972 massacre killing nine Israelis, Atlanta 1996 bombing... and you think Paris 2024 is the most disgraceful over the food served and amenities... get a grip. Worse games have happened. Paris 2024 is overall a success, people are just too nitpicky over details.
People judged so much when Brazil held the Olympics because we're a south American country, and now look who's the controversial Olympics 😅 I was shocked when I saw the athletes swimming on basically sewage...
This is sad representation of food preparation. How in the world do you cook pasta and not know to stir the pot so the pasta don't stick. I'm betting they hired bunch of people that have never cooked western food in their lives. I was recently at an amusement park and I've had better food there than what the athletes seem to be eating.
@BK-tp6jf but various cultures may cook them differently. For instance, you need spaghetti to not be sticky, and be neither too soft nor too hard. It's not the case for all noodle types worldwide, some are cooked to be sticky and in some in doesn't matter.
A few months ago, there was a compilation video going around of other department celebrities and travelers talking about how the food in France really sucked.
@@KMilaB-n7d LMAO I remember that, it was so funny. 😂 That one dude who showed the dirt path to the Eiffel Tower, all the graffiti and bags of trash everywhere. I started noticing it on Google images and restaurant reviews as well, all the graffiti.
France really phoned it in like holy shit. It's bad enough that they forced the swimming competitions to be in a filthy river, but they made EVERYTHING as cheap and shitty as possible. It's unbelievable. Some countries spend so much money fixing things up for the Olympics, and France basically just said it'll do with what it's got already. Shameful behavior.
France is showing that you can organize Olympics that won't ruin you. Have you noticed that there's fewer and fewer candidates to organize the Olympics? Because it costs billions! I think France made the right choice. First the venues in the city are unbelievable (Trocadero, Invalides, Grand Palais, Versailles, etc.) and it didn't cost much at all. I think it's a great deal!
@@thomaswargnier2562 Then you shouldn't host the Olympics its supposed to be a international spectacle where the best of the best in the world compete if you cant handle the cost of it then don't host it remember in order to be chosen to host your country literally needs to bid on it. This is just sad...
@@happyjohn354 I know that you have to bid, and when Paris did bid at the time, they explained exactly what they'd do (use existing venues, try to be more eco friendly etc.). And that's also why they got picked up. Because as I was saying before, there are fewer and fewer candidates every time, and the IOC was very interested in a live experiment of more budget controlled Olympics in order to attract more bidders in the future... Now you might have only seen a handful of IG or TikTok stories to make up your mind about the Paris Olympics, but I was on the ground and a huge majority of visitors were super happy and athletes too. Not everything was prefect of course, but all in all, those Olympics ended up costing almost half the price of some recent ones. And there won't be any abandoned venues etc after after the galles like we've seen too many times in the past. The bonus was to have so many competitions in iconic and historical spots in the heart and around Paris. For me it was a good compromise, but you're allowed to have your opinion if you think that a country should spend 20 billions for 2 weeks of sport...
knowing the French, they probably splashed soy sauce onto something and call it Asian food. Apparently the food was so bad, the South Koreans brought over their own chefs and materials to cook for the athletes.
the viral chocolate muffins have been sold in france starbucks as a regular baked good item on their menu for quite a while. it is probably the same bakery that makes it that supplied it for the dining halls.
That's what happens when a president decides to run a country like a corporation. Turns out cutting costs and maximizing private profit does not taste very good.
Look up Paris Syndrome. It's when Japanese tourists visit Paris, and the reality falls so short of expectations that it leads to physical ailments. More tourists from other countries are experiencing now.
Personally I'm surprised they even have dining halls for the athletes. In my head I was thinking most olympic athletes would have very strict rules of what they eat or don't eat - especially for such an important event in their lives/careers, so they wouldn't put this in the hands of anyone else to handle... but guess I was wrong :P
As a French person I have to apologize for my country, this is not at all up to the standards. I don't know what happened but they clearly messed up badly.
Imagine if an athlete is so poor that they didn’t have enough pocket money to at least dine outside… wow. This is the problem with mass producing food, it’s difficult to cook for thousands of people.
Ridiculous. Watch Indian wedding videos. 100s of variety cooked for thousands of ppl easy. Guest list in Indian wedding is minimum 500 ppl. From sweets to savories to rice and Naan the good caterers and chefs do it to perfection in wedding Venue kitchens. These ppl can't even cook basic good dishes? The athletes Just want a hearty meal. If they can't even be served that then it's a useless country. Doesn't France boast a rich food culture? Even village ppl in France eat better than this.
Not true. I catered my Dad's wedding by myself for over 200 people. And I volunteered for cooking in the mess hall in the US Army. They cook three meals a day for 1000s of people everyday.
How are these not viral on the mainstream media? If this were to happen in Asian/African countries, the media would have gone viral and roasted them. I feel really bad for the athletes. I hope you'd be treated better in the next olympic villages.
I dont think the girl is right about the muffins. These types of muffins with the filling are found everywhere in Europe, in the Netherlands they're just sold in the supermarket.
I'm not sure if I'm watching the same video as some people in comments, because the variety of options and the dishes seem completely fine to me! (I'm French and used to healthy and good food)
Japan's rugby world cupin 2019 and Olympics in 2020 were 100 times better than the French rugby world cup 2023 and Olympics 2024. Japanese hospitality and respect is amazing, France is horrible on these aspects
The last Olympics in Tokyo was harshly criticized by leftists in Japan and was labeled as the world's worst Olympics, among other things. However, the reality seems to be different. Thank you, France, and goodbye.
In all honesty I'm European and I don't like French savoury dishes at all. Maybe coz us Mediterraneans know better.... didn’t mean to offend anyone, it's just so good eating what we do here that I just couldn't handle the pretentious and undercooked French stuff

@@sana.4.a tu croit que des athlètes qui sont sélectionnés par leurs délégations pour ramener des medailles vont manger des boeuf bourguignon ou des coq au vin tout les soirs quand il faut nourrir 40.000 personnes ? Les assos elle même ont dit que tout les jours elles ont récupéré 1 tonnes de nourriture ... soyons sérieux un peu, ce sont les J.O ils ont déjà eu tout les soins gratuit, ce sont peut-être des gosses qui sait.
One thing I notice everyone eating is, for dinner, they eating a lot of protein with a ton of carbs, then a moderate side of vegetables. They aren’t eating small meals either on avg, they are all fairly large. It looks to cut back in bad fats and replaced with good fats instead and less sodium but other than that. Then they have one bigger vegetable with a meat or a decent amount of dairy for lunch or something to get their protein numbers in. Their snacks are usually a carb or fruit. Not one of them are eating small meals though.
They reportedly wanted to go more modern in their food selection, offering a variety of foods, from plant-based to multicultural cuisines that olympians could recognize. On one hand, it was a bold and innovative move bc it showed that French cuisine isn’t stuck in the past and is constantly evolving. On the other hand, the Olympics may not have been the best place to try it. While some considered the changes nice, NBC correspondents had to wait like 20 minutes just for a sandwich but stated that it was delicious, others complained quite a bit about the food. There were also issues with them running out of certain animal proteins which is a nightmare when you have omnivore and carnivore premier athletes breathing down your neck, waiting for fuel for their bodies. I think ppl are just so much more critical of everything now, for better or worse. They could have served them a king’s banquet and ppl still would have criticisms. Just like some people loved swimming in the Seine river and others were pretty upset bc it’s a known issue that when there is heavy rainfall, the E Coli in the river can raise to toxic levels; some thought it was the opportunity of a lifetime while other athletes felt like “puppets” whose health was placed second to an “iconic” moment of having olympians swim there. Both sides have valid points. I think that ppl just need to remember that Paris isn’t trying to hurt any of these athletes, esp. with millions watching.
@@puccalandLike some people like spicy food some dont. they may complain if it doesnt match their preference. but Paris didnt prepare enough protein for athletes thats beyond the level because thats very basic knowledge of sport nutrition. Tokyo hired specialists in catering athletes and have worked for sport teams so they know what nutrients athletes need.
I have this super easy Betty Crocker scratch brownie recipe that I pour a simple Betty Crocker chocolate glaze over. To absolutely die for! The perfect dry brownie with just the right amount of moist in the smooth, rich glaze. I would serve these brownies to royalty they're so elevated. Add chunks of a giant Symphony bar and you almost have these muffins.
I suggest everyone watch the entire video. It’s more clickbait than anything else. Especially the thumbnail. Other than the first 2 obnoxiously loud minutes. Everything else is highly rated. And nothings below a 5.
You need either a buffet foodie or a college student to go in there to remix a plate into something edible. 🤣Missed opportunity, they need a Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart segment of walking through the food area and doing a prison plate remix.
these people hosting the olympics make so much money none of it going to the the athletes that generate such funds and are disrespected to this level is appallingly it’s so deep it really is that deep
Weird, first few videos shows many athletes dissatisfied with the food but then many other clips showing other athletes having a decent meal. Doesnt seems like its all that bad and just a few people complaining

I know a guy who was an assistant to a big agent in Hollywood for a short while. He was put on a private jet to go pickup a shirt from the dry cleaner. It's insane.
The most disgraceful Olympics in living memory
😂😂 in what way?
Berlin 1936 hosted by Adolf Hitler, Munich 1972 massacre killing nine Israelis, Atlanta 1996 bombing... and you think Paris 2024 is the most disgraceful over the food served and amenities... get a grip. Worse games have happened. Paris 2024 is overall a success, people are just too nitpicky over details.
Idk sochi is up there

Why are people so obsessed about the muffins? They look just like normal tripple choc muffins to me
Cuz it’s about the only thing yummy there 🤣😂
Yep ...
That doesn’t look like a normal muffin to me. There’s a ton of ganache in the middle
The only edible thing, I guess.
I usually find these muffins in Europe, our muffins back home do not have fillings.
People judged so much when Brazil held the Olympics because we're a south American country, and now look who's the controversial Olympics 😅 I was shocked when I saw the athletes swimming on basically sewage...
The difference between brazil and france is one of them is a Country from 3rd world and the other is and “””Elite “”” from “””1st””” world
I need one of those muffins.
But they look identical to the cheap muffins from a supermarket...out of a factory. 1.99€ for 4 pieces chocolate and blueberry ( 2 + 2 )
@@uhar2411we don’t have muffins like that in the grocery stores where I am, and if they did they definitely wouldn’t be cheap
This is sad representation of food preparation. How in the world do you cook pasta and not know to stir the pot so the pasta don't stick. I'm betting they hired bunch of people that have never cooked western food in their lives. I was recently at an amusement park and I've had better food there than what the athletes seem to be eating.
@BK-tp6jf but various cultures may cook them differently. For instance, you need spaghetti to not be sticky, and be neither too soft nor too hard. It's not the case for all noodle types worldwide, some are cooked to be sticky and in some in doesn't matter.
@@joane24 You’re exhausting. You know what they meant.
Huh? Pasta always sticks when you leave it for a while after cooking. It's not during the cooking process.
@@smtandearthboundsuck8400 It also might be *during* cooking process. That's why you need to stir it at some point during cooking.
@@joane24 wow I never had that happen with pasta, must be a serious skill issue.
That food is an absolute disgrace! Whoever is in charge should be ashamed!
@ohbebe Not trying to offend you or anyone else. For the amount of money those folks were paid the food should be much better.
@@lisaswrld ever heard of corruption and money never going to the thing it's supposed to ?
@@ommsterlitz1805 I didn’t ask WHY! I said it was disgraceful.
Halal dining section looks like the place to eat. Everything looked way better
Because they can't make the same industrial slop they gave everyone...
To be honest that's the section I would eat from. Always been told if you travel eat Halal or Kosher it tastes better and higher quality.
@ohbebe too bad you're incorrect, but keep spreading misinformation.
Paris is nasty…and food suck
A few months ago, there was a compilation video going around of other department celebrities and travelers talking about how the food in France really sucked.
@@KMilaB-n7d LMAO I remember that, it was so funny. 😂 That one dude who showed the dirt path to the Eiffel Tower, all the graffiti and bags of trash everywhere. I started noticing it on Google images and restaurant reviews as well, all the graffiti.

@@Omnihilo thanks mate
0:03 is that stuffing?
France really phoned it in like holy shit. It's bad enough that they forced the swimming competitions to be in a filthy river, but they made EVERYTHING as cheap and shitty as possible. It's unbelievable. Some countries spend so much money fixing things up for the Olympics, and France basically just said it'll do with what it's got already. Shameful behavior.
France is showing that you can organize Olympics that won't ruin you.
Have you noticed that there's fewer and fewer candidates to organize the Olympics?
Because it costs billions!
I think France made the right choice. First the venues in the city are unbelievable (Trocadero, Invalides, Grand Palais, Versailles, etc.) and it didn't cost much at all.
I think it's a great deal!
@@thomaswargnier2562 Then you shouldn't host the Olympics its supposed to be a international spectacle where the best of the best in the world compete if you cant handle the cost of it then don't host it remember in order to be chosen to host your country literally needs to bid on it. This is just sad...
Swimming in the river was uncalled for. I feel sorry for those poor athletes.
@@happyjohn354 I know that you have to bid, and when Paris did bid at the time, they explained exactly what they'd do (use existing venues, try to be more eco friendly etc.). And that's also why they got picked up. Because as I was saying before, there are fewer and fewer candidates every time, and the IOC was very interested in a live experiment of more budget controlled Olympics in order to attract more bidders in the future...
Now you might have only seen a handful of IG or TikTok stories to make up your mind about the Paris Olympics, but I was on the ground and a huge majority of visitors were super happy and athletes too.
Not everything was prefect of course, but all in all, those Olympics ended up costing almost half the price of some recent ones. And there won't be any abandoned venues etc after after the galles like we've seen too many times in the past. The bonus was to have so many competitions in iconic and historical spots in the heart and around Paris.
For me it was a good compromise, but you're allowed to have your opinion if you think that a country should spend 20 billions for 2 weeks of sport...
@@happyjohn354 No one can afford it that's why only France was candidate
Clean toilets, clean roads, delicious food. Compared to the last Olympics, which was held in heaven, the athletes must have thought this was hell.
When I saw Sodexo was catering Olympic Village, I understood lmao
Looks like the Asian and Halal sections are a safe bet. Also the choco muffins 😍
knowing the French, they probably splashed soy sauce onto something and call it Asian food. Apparently the food was so bad, the South Koreans brought over their own chefs and materials to cook for the athletes.
Why did France even bid for the Olympics if they could not be bothered?
This was Macron dream and everyone disapproved him so no one care, it's literally Neron Macron personal show
the viral chocolate muffins have been sold in france starbucks as a regular baked good item on their menu for quite a while. it is probably the same bakery that makes it that supplied it for the dining halls.
That's what happens when a president decides to run a country like a corporation. Turns out cutting costs and maximizing private profit does not taste very good.
If these Olympics are about showing the world the best things the organizing country has got to offer, then I don't want to go to France.
Look up Paris Syndrome. It's when Japanese tourists visit Paris, and the reality falls so short of expectations that it leads to physical ailments. More tourists from other countries are experiencing now.
These are first class world athletes…they should be eating healthy food, not garbage! Shame on the Olympic Committee
Personally I'm surprised they even have dining halls for the athletes. In my head I was thinking most olympic athletes would have very strict rules of what they eat or don't eat - especially for such an important event in their lives/careers, so they wouldn't put this in the hands of anyone else to handle... but guess I was wrong :P
囚人食？
😂😂 The athletes should REFUSE TO PERFORM UNTIL THEY FIX THAT DOG SLOP.
As a French person I have to apologize for my country, this is not at all up to the standards. I don't know what happened but they clearly messed up badly.
Imagine if an athlete is so poor that they didn’t have enough pocket money to at least dine outside… wow. This is the problem with mass producing food, it’s difficult to cook for thousands of people.
Go watch a video about United States military aircraft carriers. They do it.
Ridiculous. Watch Indian wedding videos. 100s of variety cooked for thousands of ppl easy. Guest list in Indian wedding is minimum 500 ppl. From sweets to savories to rice and Naan the good caterers and chefs do it to perfection in wedding Venue kitchens. These ppl can't even cook basic good dishes? The athletes Just want a hearty meal. If they can't even be served that then it's a useless country. Doesn't France boast a rich food culture? Even village ppl in France eat better than this.
I mean this wasn’t an issue in the other Olympics. Look at Beijing it had a fantastic village
Not true. I catered my Dad's wedding by myself for over 200 people. And I volunteered for cooking in the mess hall in the US Army. They cook three meals a day for 1000s of people everyday.
How are these not viral on the mainstream media? If this were to happen in Asian/African countries, the media would have gone viral and roasted them. I feel really bad for the athletes. I hope you'd be treated better in the next olympic villages.
I dont think the girl is right about the muffins. These types of muffins with the filling are found everywhere in Europe, in the Netherlands they're just sold in the supermarket.
Y'all traveled all the way to Paris and they feed you garbage unworthy of their dogs. Okay, at least the food closer to the end got way better.
@ohbebe Fair enough.... lol
@ohbebe The food was just subjectively bad the company doing the catering makes cheap school and hospital food.
Bro we give inmates better food than this. Fucking disgraceful. Olympic athletes are supposed to be getting the best of the best for proper meals.
Dang! Muffins are better than the rest of all foods 🤣🤣🤣
I'm not sure if I'm watching the same video as some people in comments, because the variety of options and the dishes seem completely fine to me! (I'm French and used to healthy and good food)
Kay's Cooking could have got you similar results for a fraction of the government spending!
Or Josh's mom 😂😂😂
The chocolate muffins are “so good” because it’s all relative.
They not like us. I would have to find the African or Jamaican restaurants.
Apparently, they found worms in the food too.? Oh hell naw.!
All the asian, mexican and italian restaurants would be good
"Muffin" is such a funny word 😂

The last Olympics in Tokyo was harshly criticized by leftists in Japan and was labeled as the world's worst Olympics, among other things. However, the reality seems to be different. Thank you, France, and goodbye.

It's not surprising. Many restaurants in Europe (not only France) are serving poor quality foods for expensive price.

Same as Woolies in Australia 😂
One thing I notice everyone eating is, for dinner, they eating a lot of protein with a ton of carbs, then a moderate side of vegetables. They aren’t eating small meals either on avg, they are all fairly large. It looks to cut back in bad fats and replaced with good fats instead and less sodium but other than that. Then they have one bigger vegetable with a meat or a decent amount of dairy for lunch or something to get their protein numbers in. Their snacks are usually a carb or fruit. Not one of them are eating small meals though.
to be fair, it got better over the course of the video
I feel like they cut costs in the cuisines department. What a travesty.
You would think that in France, it would be top-of-the-line.
There are probably millions of food served. There will always be somebody that will be not happy.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! No! Please! No! Please!
Only the muffins?!
What is wrong with you, France?!
I’m not shock lol, food at school was questioning so I was not expecting them to serve better than they serve the citizens 😂
Jail food looks better then Olympic food 😮👀💯🍔🍟
They reportedly wanted to go more modern in their food selection, offering a variety of foods, from plant-based to multicultural cuisines that olympians could recognize. On one hand, it was a bold and innovative move bc it showed that French cuisine isn’t stuck in the past and is constantly evolving. On the other hand, the Olympics may not have been the best place to try it. While some considered the changes nice, NBC correspondents had to wait like 20 minutes just for a sandwich but stated that it was delicious, others complained quite a bit about the food. There were also issues with them running out of certain animal proteins which is a nightmare when you have omnivore and carnivore premier athletes breathing down your neck, waiting for fuel for their bodies.
I think ppl are just so much more critical of everything now, for better or worse. They could have served them a king’s banquet and ppl still would have criticisms. Just like some people loved swimming in the Seine river and others were pretty upset bc it’s a known issue that when there is heavy rainfall, the E Coli in the river can raise to toxic levels; some thought it was the opportunity of a lifetime while other athletes felt like “puppets” whose health was placed second to an “iconic” moment of having olympians swim there. Both sides have valid points. I think that ppl just need to remember that Paris isn’t trying to hurt any of these athletes, esp. with millions watching.
No they cut cost and got Sodexo a company known for cheap bad quality school, hospital, and prison food to do the catering.

I have this super easy Betty Crocker scratch brownie recipe that I pour a simple Betty Crocker chocolate glaze over. To absolutely die for! The perfect dry brownie with just the right amount of moist in the smooth, rich glaze. I would serve these brownies to royalty they're so elevated.

Its so weird to me how the generation after me is obsessed with making reels and stuff like that.
these people hosting the olympics make so much money none of it going to the the athletes that generate such funds and are disrespected to this level is appallingly it’s so deep it really is that deep
Weird, first few videos shows many athletes dissatisfied with the food but then many other clips showing other athletes having a decent meal. Doesnt seems like its all that bad and just a few people complaining
