You definitely didn't live in New England....

We had that same saying, but my mom split the difference and we all ate like soldiers on half-rations so we wouldn't freeze to death in sub-zero temperatures.
I still remember the Mayonnaise sandwich and cracker lunches with a half glass of milk and all the tap water we could consume.....

I guess "it's so easy" for only a select few..?

Pfft....
