If you had to imagine the diet of Olympic athletes, it probably would be an entirely too healthy concoction that I would have zero interest in.

That's apparently not necessarily the case for snowboarders.

In between qualifying runs, American Olympian, and women's snowboard half pipe favorite, Chloe Kim tweeted that she could be down for some ice cream.

Now call me crazy, but the last thing I'm thinking about if I was at the Olympics is where the nearest Baskin Robbins is.

But here's a gold medal favorite contemplating important decisions like one scoop or two, and chocolate vs. vanilla in between her two qualifying runs.

Those runs, by the way, were the two highest scoring runs in qualifying establishing Kim as the clear gold medal favorite.

And the tweet about ice cream, that wasn't her first tweet about food during the Olympics. Apparently she had churros on the eve of her Olympic debut to calm her nerves.

Ice cream and churros, an Olympic diet I can get behind.
