Yes, I've heard that also. It's little bit weird, yes, and I didn't understand how they gonna do that tests.

I thought this was to test for counter-doping, or sabotage of a meal by including performance-enhancing drugs...? There is increasing concern that, because of doping scandals in previous Olympic games, a rival group may try to drug another team so that they're caught during the drug tests and disqualified. In which case, the rats would be useful; they're small and they have a very human-like metabolism, albeit much faster, so if a rat ingests a drug like steriods, they'll display effects quickly. I imaging blood or urine tests on a rat would be easy to perform on site, before dinner.

I would trust Chinese rats,
more than I would French rats,
to be fair and impartial.
