The average child consumes enough sugar on the first day of school holidays to power a small city. The Darcy kids just shattered that record.
Eyewitnesses report that the siblings launched their ambitious fridge raid shortly after breakfast, armed with a singular mission: to devour anything classified as food.
“I was hungry?” said 5-year-old Jet, surrounded by an impressive array of empty cans of Red Bull. “I was hungwy too!” his sister Mattel said while finishing off a 1-litre bottle of milk and a bag of party-size Doritos.
“I found some birthday cake and Mum and Dad’s hidden box of Favourites at the back!” Jet exclaimed, holding the empty box.
Their parents speculate their kids might be training for a future in competitive eating.
“I just wanted to make pasta,” moaned mum Sharlet. “Looks like it’s cereal for dinner.”
Experts warn that Day 2 could bring even more significant challenges as the kids eye the pantry with the same intensity they have not seen since the Avengers Infinity War.
