Do you find it confounding that people eat on wood tables when they have perfectly good tummies to eat off of?
Have you ever watched the
Blackadder the Third episode
Dish and Dishonesty? There is a very similar line in there....

Blackadder: Your highness, Sir Talbot Buxomly, MP.
Prince George: Ah, Buxomly- roaringly splendid to have you here- how are yu sir?
Talbot: Heartily well, your Highness. I dined hugely off a servant before coming to town.
Prince George: (nervous, a little freaked) Um, you eat your servants?
Talbot: No, sir. I eat off them. Why should I spend good money on tables when I have men standing idel?
