Toddler Eats Eighteen Cups Of Yogurt After Being Left Alone

Updated September 8, 2021

When you're a kid, there's no such thing as moderation. You know which foods taste bad and you know which ones taste good, and you're way more interested in eating the good stuff than the bad.

But your parents have rules, and you can't just go ham and eat an entire pack of Chips Ahoy chocolate chip cookies because there's almost always someone there who will stop you and say, "Caitlyn, we've talked about this, cookies aren't a meal."

Of course, everything changes when you suddenly find yourself all alone and surrounded by food, glorious food.

One little girl knew a good opportunity when she saw one and wasn't about to let it go to waste.

3-year-old Olivia Whysall from Nottingham, England, has certainly made a name for herself after her dad left her alone for 10 minutes, only to return to find his darling daughter had devoured 18 cups of yogurt.

I physically can't imagine trying to stomach 18 cups of anything but this little girl did it like an absolute champ.

Her dad, Arron Whysall, posted a snap of his daughter post-yogurt so everyone could see just how hardcore she really is.

Look at that face. That's the face of someone who just lived their best life and has no regrets. That's also the face of someone with a pristine gut flora.

And what did Olivia have to say when she was caught on her yogurt spree?

According to his interview with, The Mirror, Arron explains, “When I found Olivia with all 18 yogurts, I asked her, ‘Have you eaten all of those?’ And she quite proudly said, ’yes.’”

The dad continued by saying, “I just thought, ’fair enough.’”

And clearly Dad wasn't all that mad about the week's supply of yogurt disappearing in a matter of minutes.

"Have kids they said," he wrote in the cheeky caption for his Facebook post which has been shared more than 10,000 times.

Arron, 27, said the sight of his yogurt fiend of a daughter made him laugh out loud.

"She looked so proud of herself," he told TODAY Parents. "I couldn't tell her off."

When asked how Olivia's feeling after polishing off so many cups of the good stuff, Arron confirmed that she is totally fine: "No complaints. She didn't get sick or anything."

Which has to be a welcome surprise considering how she packed it away — and we don't even know if that's all she had for lunch!

Unsurprisingly, the Facebook post is filled with comments from people who can't get enough of this 3-year-old girl and her insatiable taste for yogurt.

"I'd like to meet this kid," one person wrote. "They clearly know how to live."

Another added, "Pretty sure if I had the opportunity as a kid I would have done the same."

A lot of people found they could easily relate to Olivia or her father.

Arron’s Facebook post has amassed over 33 thousand comments and 24 thousand shares.

The comments are filled with people who relate to Olivia and her eating exploits or have kids with similar mischievous habits.

And seriously, though, how could you get mad at that adorable face for eating 18 yogurts!

When talking about Olivia, Arron tells The Mirror, “She’s such a little character, she keeps us busy, put it that way,” and “If there’s mischief to get up to, Olivia will be the first one there.”

It’s hard to imagine anyone being able to get upset with Olivia with those big eyes and that precious little smile. Even when she eats enough yogurt to make a competitive eater jealous!

Personally, I don't think I've ever related so hard to someone before, and I admire Olivia for shaking up the yogurt flavors to keep things interesting because otherwise she probably would have been so done at around cup number 6.

But this little trooper knew just what to do to power through. And for that, we salute you.
