North Korea's women ice hockey players are not averse to enjoying a McDonald's ice cream for breakfast, according to their South Korean teammates. The North Koreans are part of a unified Korean team playing at the Winter Olympic Games and are staying in the Athletes Village.

"Two days ago, I saw the North Koreans in line at McDonald's (in the Athletes Village dining hall) and I was also in line at McDonald's," said Randi Griffin, one of the unified Korean team players.

"They were getting Oreo McFlurries for breakfast and so we all laughed about that and had McFlurries together," chuckled Griffin, an American of Korean heritage drafted in to bolster the Korean side.
