About This Quote

This quote is alluding to the fact that sometimes, at dinner parties, one person gets really hungry and decides to order food. Then the waiter comes with a dish for one, a dish for two, a dish for three and a dish for four. The next day the person really regrets ordering the excessive amount of food because they had no idea how much they were going to eat.
