It’s all a matter of perspective. Cliff isn’t wrong.

He will eat both halves, of course.

legal technicality. should’ve said “cut my calories by half”

He should “cut his calories” in half himself (for the extra exercise).

Guilt-free calories!

As I understand it, some of the calories actually do fall out of the cut ends. ;-)

R U Sirius?

That might work, Cliff, if you’d eat half at lunch and half at dinner. But, I know that’s not what you’re thinking.

“Sir, would you like your pizza cut in six or eight pieces?”

“Better make it six, I don’t think I could eat eight.”

I decided to cut carbs as well….so I use a pizza slicer on the pie

It’s the non-diet diet. Now cliff will need to cut himself in half.

Comedienne Rita Rudner once said that she dieted by only eating half of the desert. Of course, if she really liked it, she’d order two.

& then he will eat both halves…hey, he said he would cut it in half, he didn’t say he would eat ONLY half! ;D

This is actually a good dieting strategy, provided you immediately wrap up the other half and refrigerate it.

I grew up in a relatively poor household and it is really, really hard to break that “clean your plate” habit. It is one of the reasons I rarely eat at restaurants. Often the serving-size is set for the “biggest” complainer.

It might work if the server also chewed and swallowed half for him.

It sounds better than it does.

I first saw this joke made by Little Lulu in a Richie Rich comic book 60 years ago. I thought it was so hilarious I shared it with Mom.

I used to do the same thing with my Foot Long sandwiches.

It makes them much easier to handle.
