Babysitter’s Diet Exclusively Whatever’s in Fridge

It was recently revealed that Nadya Wright, a 23-year old babysitter from Denver, Colorado, maintains an unconventional diet. The babysitter is said to subsist exclusively on whatever’s in the fridge of the families she babysits for.

 

Wright reports having an eclectic diet due to the unique and ever-changing source of her sustenance.

 

“Sometimes it’s Chinese leftovers, sometimes it’s three string cheeses and whole box of Ritz crackers, it just depends,” she explains.

 

The modern-day forager claims that eating scraps out of family’s fridge isn’t always easy. She feels pressure to be tactful despite the fact that most parents tell her to “help yourself.”

 

“You know they don’t mean really mean it,” Says Wright. “Like, they don’t want me to eat the last piece of lasagna or the four dollar Asian pear that’s in the fridge or whatever. That’s why I’ll sometimes just take one bite of everything so I don’t overeat one food.”

 

“I wouldn’t say my body feels good,” adds Wright. “But I am saving a ton of money.”

 

By her own admission, Wright does not always stick to the one-bite-per-food-group regimen. She has observed a direct positive correlation between the number of hours that the kids are asleep before their parents get home and the amount of food she manages to eat from the household fridge.

 

“When I have a lot of time to myself, I end up really going to town on their fridge and pantry,” said Wright. “Fruit roll ups, three old chicken nuggets, freezer-burned ice cream. And if I get a text that the parents are going to be back late, it’s truly game over.”

 

Clarice Moore, a parent Wright babysits for, corroborated Wright’s account.

 

“When I left Nadya with the kids, I told her, ‘help yourself to anything in the fridge,’ and she really took that offer to heart,” said Moore. “She cleared out our leftover spaghetti, a tube of icing, and even my youngest’s baby food. It’s okay with me, but I worry that she must really be starving.”

 

The arbitrary and unpredictable nature of Wright’s diet helps to keep her relationship with food healthy and positive.

 

“I finally feel like I’m not burdened by having to plan meals or keep to a strict budget,” says Wright. “I know my dinner will be whatever shit they forgot about in the freezer. And that’s freeing.”

 

 

Despite the unconventional nature of her new regimen, Wright has no intention of changing her ways.

 

“I definitely won’t be eating the kids’ Halloween candy anymore though,” Wright said. “One kid got really upset. But guess what? If you have a box of Lucky Charms in your cabinet, I’m gonna eat out every single marshmallow and leave you all the boring cereal.”
