rationed

Food is rationed to only one meal a day.

Clement Attlee was Prime Minister, and meat, cheese, sugar, and petrol were still being rationed after World War Two.

“Food, unlike water, may be rationed safely, except for children and pregnant women.”

Competitors have complained about a lack of eggs, which were reportedly rationed at breakfast during the first few days of the Olympics.

Competitors have said the amount of food available, specifically eggs, which were rationed at breakfast on Wednesday, and grilled meats, is insufficient, according to the French newspaper L'Équipe.
