“I just don’t want to look back and think, ‘I could’ve eaten that’”

“I just don’t want to look back and think, ‘I could’ve eaten that’” is a jocular line that has been printed on GIFs. “I just don’t want to look back and think, ‘I could have eaten that!’” was posted on Twitter on April 4, 2011, but the saying appears to have become popular in 2013.

“I just don’t want to look back and think: I could’ve eaten that”
 
18 July 2014, Eastern Eye (London), “Waffling about month-long fast” by Reena Kumar, pg. 19:
While some people are offering information, tips and practical advice, others have been helping non-Muslims gain an insight into the significance of fasting. One tweeter urges people to drop the hashtag because it reminds him of a waffle, while another ponders the problems that fasting throws up: “I just don’t want to look back and think: I could’ve eaten that.”

“I just don’t want to look back and think I could have eaten that.”
This food quote is so funny because it’s how we all feel at one point or another. It’s also a great reason to give into temptations. I mean imagine sitting in a restaurant staring at a nice juicy, thick, steak but it’s on the table next to you in front of someone else.
