I just rewatched the video, she bought and made: 11,937 calories of pasta 2,250 calories of Sauce 18,000 calories of meatballs (damn meatballs are more calorically dense than I thought) 3,660 calories of cheese 4,200 calories of breadsticks That’s 40,047 calories for *17* people That comes out to 2,355 per person, which is more than the daily recommended for adults. Keep in mind there are multiple kids under 10. Recommend caloric intake of people there: (ages approx as I don’t care to do math and cross check ages, that’d be to much, using baseline activity levels) -2,000 -2,200 -2,000 -2,000 16- 2,964 15-2,964 13-2,414 12-1,606 (steep dive actually) 11-1,520 10-1,520 9-1,600 (higher because boy) 9x2-1,600x2 Any child under this age is recommended 1,550/varies heavily due to activity level so I will be using 1,550 for all of them as a baseline This is 29,088 calories needed for an entire day for this group. Not ONE MEAL. Dinner should be 25-35% of your daily intake. Meaning dinner should be 8,726 give or take 1000 more. Meaning there is about 31k extra calories sitting in a non-food safe environment (due to temp of the room and the children grabbing it with their bare hands, washed or not). Leftovers will not be food safe or viable. Weather they ate them or not doesn’t matter, they shouldn’t have, as it was unsafe and bad foster/adoption/parenting practice. I get my numbers from a NHS nutrition book my roommate (a registered dietitian) has in his office. This is the first time I’ve ever sat down and looked into this this hard but I’m even more appalled after putting the time into it. (Someone in her comment section said that this was a normal amount of food so I just had to check. The autism number goblin in my brain wouldn’t have let me not.)

I forget who mentioned your channel...but I am so happy they did. You are super funny and morally sound. I always knew family vlogs were off-putting...but wow have you really opened my eyes about just how disturbing they truly are. Amazing content 🤗 been binge watching for 3 days now 🥴

We did a pasta bar for our wedding and I don't think we even used 6lbs of pasta for 130 people.

[@DwightKSchruteIII]

Ma’am a pasta bar is the most genius idea I’ve ever heard for a wedding. If I wasn’t eloping I would totally borrow that idea. Congratulations by the way❤

[@gia9298.]

The kids actual dinner was McDonalds. This was all for views & thrown out afterwards

[@stenitez9724]

​@@DwightKSchruteIIII thought the same thing! Genius!

[@Kallynthehuntress]

Pasta bar for a wedding is both genius and terrifying. Red sauce, white dress?!! I don't trust myself that much lol

[@tameakamorrison7418]

The way she prepared for the girls birthdays was definitely more elaborate and thought out weeks in advance..

[@ebaa1171]

Not defending her on how she conducted these birthdays or anything but she did mentioned in several videos (I forgot which ones but one of them was a day in her life video) that Bodhi (the birthday kid in the video) gets overstimulated fast and hates big events or crowds. That’s why his birthday is just a simple home party with only family.

[@MissTupsy]

Yeah....I noticed that too. She bought way more crap for Harlee and Neveah.

[@RaeofLight13]

I’m sure the teachers of the youngest appreciated the caked up sugar rush of a child they had to deal with.

[@Hooklineandmom]

I was NOT READY for the after school happy meal SNACK 😅😂

[@LivvyAlex]

Right! Even me, an adult who can eat a lot, would only be able to eat that for dinner. Norway could invest more after that

[@infamouszxnicky]

Alicia has mentioned several times that a few of her kids have gastroparesis. I cannot imagine what her Gastroenterologist would do if he saw what she feeds them.

[@michelledunn1715]

I have gastroparesis....its horrible..she is adding to their problem

[@specialneedssurvivalist6907]

I also have Gastroparesis and I would be absolutely miserable in this house. I have to be so careful of what I eat or I’m in agony from pain and nausea. Feeding a kid like this in general is horrible, but a kid with gp is not going to have any relief from eating this way.

[@MissTupsy]

Oh yeah.....I didn't know about her kids with gastroparesis but I've often wondered how her kids can stomach this garbage.

[@jacquelinecasey1361]

So true!!!!!

[@ileneglenn845]

Hmmm I’m thinking their Dr is Dr.Web MD…probably self diagnosis her kids!

[@2Blessed]

Yes. I noticed how she doesn't help her kids, but that is typical. She is so awkward when trying to interact with the kids in any way, whether it was shopping or serving food. She literally shuts down when it comes to actually doing something with them.

[@floralbouquets]

I sometimes feel like James is more of a mother to the little kids than her...and he's just a kid himself.

[@lonelinessinmilan6486]

Most family youtubers do that, they fail to connect with their children because the constant filming and the monetary, survival motivation behind the filming effects the parents, as well as the kids. It's an alarming rabbit hole.

[@louisianabred616]

So strange… I’ve noticed strained interactions with KZbinrs and their kids as well. It’s so forced and unnatural. She never kisses or hugs her children. I never really see them hugging on Mom or sitting close to her(besides the little girl)

[@BriaBarrows]

They need to be doing school activities. She doesn’t even buy them books. Take them to the library.

[@floralbouquets]

@@BriaBarrows yes she does buy them books...and they have tons of books in the house already.

[@Luna-rg8le]

That stare into the camera's soul that she did after handing the kid a homemade chocolate chip cookie was friggin terrifying. And heres the real kicker..That dumbass she is literally using the kids as pawns and giving them unhealthy things just for the purposes of being spiteful to the people who are genuinely concerned for their health. That alone tells me everything I need to know about her.

[@sisuguillam5109]

I just read your 'cookbook'-entry... can't promise I will be able to watch this in one go. Brilliantly written, by the way!

[@devynd1175]

Josh’s “disgustoid” takes me out every single time 😂😂

[@pxmpkinlatte]

I have a big family myself when the entire family gets together its around 14 people (including in-laws) My mom made pasta for Christmas once for everyone 3 boxes of pasta 2 jars of sauce and WE STILL HAD LEFTOVERS. this woman dosen't need this much.

[@rmc169]

She could’ve had a really good spaghetti in one of those trays on a heat tray and her kids would’ve appreciated that more. Nothing was done with love everything was rushed and forced.

[@RJok-v1t]

THIS. Everything is rushed so she can get it all her tic toks instagrams and fbs...she is doing NOTHING for these kids.

[@chooserenders]

So she will be called super mom

[@carmenbrown3437]

Also, she keeps pretending you need this much food for 12 kids. You don't.

[@Lifeofjessss]

Those poor kids!!! Honestly, this video made me feel like such a great mother. I know I’m doing something right when my kids make healthy choices on their own because they actually PREFER the healthy foods!

[@94cokegirl]

Same lol when my oldest turned 6 I asked him what he wanted for his birthday supper and he said “your famous meatloaf and mashed potatoes and corn!!” 😂😂 I absolutely thought he was going to ask for McDonald’s lol I know meatloaf gets a bad rep but mine is really good 👌🏻 now he loves my lasagna al forno but I don’t make it often because the sauce takes over 4 hours to make 😅 it’s absolutely incredible but a labour of love for sure.

[@Irene-lf4fr]

Im a school dinner lady in Scotland and this amount of pasta feeds around 180 with a little side of garlic bread. Im a mum of 5 and grandma of 3 also grew up with my parents being foster carers. This exposure would never be allowed. Our kids in schools here have a sugar ban, no sweet treats, flavoured milk ect!

[@shessupersalty]

Do not you dare, group all us redheads and gingers in with her. She is a breed of her own. She is why I grew up being called soulless 🤣

[@Becca552]

Yes my 3 year old asks for scrambled eggs with cheese every morning and I always feel better knowing he’s at least had something good to start the day!

[@dellawatson1669]

Its a shame. I feel drowsy just watching this. Can you imagine how those kids feel not having a proper meal. Also, how could she send her kids to school like this in the morning for an 8 hr school day, then they come home and eat the same crap. How do they concentrate. Eating like this can make people depressed

[@wheatstonebridge]

That's great

[@94cokegirl]

My 4 and 2 year olds LOVE my scrambled eggs, it’s one breakfast I know they’ll eat a decent amount of and even if they’re picky the rest of the day at least they started out right. They’ll usually have either some toast or fruit with it depending on if I’ve done the shopping yet or not 😂 my 2 year old is newly picky but has a select amount of things that for sure will eat. Breakfast is a hard meal for my kids, they don’t like many breakfast foods. My 7 year old and I sometimes eat leftovers from supper for breakfast 😂 I figure it doesn’t really matter what time of day we’re eating certain foods, if they have good nutrition so be eat lol

[@LAM-p6g]

My son hated eggs until we got chickens. I told him store bought eggs come from chickens too. Now, he loves scrambled with cheese and holes in ones or toads in the holes whatever you call them.

[@alexandramartin7026]

I’m the crunchy mom 😂 and definitely thought “they need fiber”

[@alliemille]

It's in the cheese 😹😹

[@michelleamstutz8391]

I got so excited when I saw you were covering this video. I’m a pediatric nurse (who also spent time working in a cath lab dealing with heart attacks) and this was beyond ridiculous. Cake for breakfast, dessert, McDonald’s and cookies for snacks and Kona ice?!? 😧 the kids have youth on their side now, but by the time they are adults if this continues she is setting the up for future cardiac problems, nerve damage and diabetes. Not to mention the lack of mental health she provides or teaching them to cope with unhealthy mechanisms, or the sheer lack of medical privacy. It’s an absolute violation of their medical rights. Thank you for exposing people like this. They need to be shut down.

[@silverlimosine]

This mom has to be trolling. My jaw literally DROPPED when I saw her tossing the noodles with her bare hands. I couldn’t even watch after that. I’m appalled

[@heathera6513]

I couldn't believe she gave them all happy meals before serving a big dinner. All I could think was, they will not eat spaghetti, they just had mcdonalds after school?? Also, not heating up the pasta sauce??? Who was going to eat that?

[@meganharden13]

My question is, what happened to the rest of the cake and cookie from that morning? There’s no way they finished all of that, couldn’t they have finished that after that cold spaghetti rather than buy another cake?

[@AshAnneXoX]

I once commented “Why so much weekly white claws?” on a video that she bought 3 cases plus a bunch of ranch water and I’m glad I didn’t get blocked or deleted but I got hundreds of hate comments from her stans with people saying Mind my own business and you must be so fun at parties. I was shocked to see no one agreed with me thinking that was a lot of alcohol.

[@valtoton2982]

Oh they attack me too lol that's how I know I'm right! 2 different channels used screenshots of MY comment on the locker situation!!! Multiple stans commented on my commment, but now a number of them have been deleted... 🤔

She drinks too much and when I said it her pit bulls came out and told me she was an adult. Yes an adult with children that she doesn’t pay attention to, Just buys stuff for.

[@Hedwig-gj2di]

I saw a short video of what she fed her kids one day. It included frosted donuts for breakfast. Nobody in the comments saw anything wrong with this. It was all "oooh yummy, donuts, count me in" 🥰 and all that B.S. I mean, either they all would actually be feeding their own kids this crap all day, or they were being phony as hell. It was half comical and half sickening to read. I left a comment telling her off for feeding them crap and it got deleted soon after 😂

I audibly gagged when they started moving that ice cold spaghetti around with their hands. Not to mention I was already cringing from how she baked frozen meatballs and failed to strain the pasta. And she didn't even heat up the jar sauce 😭

When you shouted out the crunchy moms watching this that's me 🤣😭🤣. But I find it so entertaining honestly 😂😂 I just can't look away! And your commentary puts it on another level!

[@taratrudeau2029]

That's spaghetti looked gross. I bet you she threw away 3 quarters of that too. Who buys happy meals then makes Welfare spaghetti......plus I get this really weird vibe from her. Like evil step mother vibe.

[@TiffaniStarr]

WELFARE SPAGHETTI 😭😭😂😂 omg i love me some welfare spaghetti every once in a while. I grew up having that kind of spaghetti cause we were broke. I do find comfort in it, but she feeds her kids this type of pasta so many times through out the week just with a different type of pasta noodle. The cold sauce is what got me the most.. Who tf does that?????? If you’re going to buy jarred or canned sauce at least warm it up first lmao. Ugh I can’t with her.

[@BriaBarrows]

[@jamieleeharrison]

The piñata just gave me a flashback of a birthday party I went to when I was 6 or 7. We all lined up to take turns (the birthday girl didn’t go first which I think is weird) but I was second in line after some other kid. So when it was my turn I took one good swing and I broke the piñata open. I remember getting scolded by all of the mothers that were there because I broke the piñata open and the birthday girl didn’t get to have a turn hitting it… like… okay, then she should have gone first.. I remember apologizing profusely and they said I should have met the bday girl break it open. I was never invited to another party in my neighborhood after that. All of the moms in my neighborhood were incredibly snobby and were really mean to me because my mom was an alcoholic. I had a hard home life and they couldn’t even provide me just a little relief by just letting me be a kid and play with their kids.

This is just gross. You can tell the kids don't know what to do here. It's chaos...and her husband is totally checked out. He's clearly only still there for the paycheck. He can't be bothered with the kids. He's barely civilized to them. The kids are overestimulated all the time. Wtf are they thinking? I have 3 special needs kids and they are all older now...2 teens,1 adult,and they still have to have really low key stuff going on at home,a healthy diet,enough sleep,parental interaction...they tell us what they need...but nobody is listening to those kids.😢

I think it’s because his “present” was re doing the play room, so she bought a bunch of new toys, equipment and storage stuff for that. So his actual gifts he got to open on his birthday wasn’t much. Compared to her usual.

[@Mammaj1963]

What is wrong with this lady

[@astridjones6327]

I am registered dietician with a masters degree in human nutrition and even I let my children have cake for breakfast 😂. But that is ONCE a year on their birthday. The rest of the year they eat a mostly natural, low sugar, whole foods diet with no food groups eliminated (I don’t police what they eat at parties or their friends houses). I mainly work with the elderly now days but these children cannot honestly eat like that surely? In SOME cases I actively encourage snacking but a happy meal is nutritionally void and definitely not a snack. I am sure most of this is just for content…

[@nickierenee5886]
