“I finally found a diet plan that really works. It’s called ‘The Price of Food’” is a saying that has been printed on many images. That is, the speaker doesn’t eat that much because food is too expensive.
“from #Maxine: Found a #diet plan that really works. It’s called The #Price of #Food” was posted on Twitter by Renee Ann Smith on November 7, 2012. The saying is from a “Crabby Road” comic illustration of the “Maxine” character by John Wagner.
