Proverbs27:7
7 The full soul loatheth an honey comb , but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.

The most delicious meats. The design of this Proverb is to shew the inconvenience that oft times attends upon plenty, and the advantage of Poverty, that the rich might learn moderation, and the poor content.
