By ANISaturday, June 5, 2010
LONDON - Food prepared by Chef Tim De’Ath will be provided to England’s football stars during this year’s FIFA World Cup.
Jocularly referred to as Dr. Death, Tim will put the players on a special super-carb diet to combat the effects of altitude, and hopefully, give them the edge over their rivals.
Fabio Capello picked Tim after the England boss heard about his work with Premiership club West Ham, The Mirror reports.
Steak, chicken and fish will be on the menu as the stars plough through 5,000 carbs a day.
The England party has packed:
6 bottles Tabasco sauce
24 bottles peri-peri sauce
12 tubes wasabi paste
25 bottles sweet chilli sauce
10 bottles English mustard
30 packs seaweed sheets
25 bags pine nuts
30 bags dried apricots
30 packs custard
30 packs vegetable stock cubes
200 organic chocolate bars
30 bags herbal teas
10 packs risotto rice
5 litres olive oil
24 bars jam
15 bottles brown sauce
10 bottles balsamic vinegar (ANI)
