Such dainties to them, their health it might hurt It 's like sending them ruffles when wanting a shirt. Oliver Goldsmith

I have often thought, if it was not for this Tyranny which Custom usurps over us, that Men of any tolerable Good-nature could never be reconcil'd to the killing of so many Animals for their daily Food, as long as the bountiful Earth so plentifully provides them with Varieties of vegetable Dainties. Bernard Mandeville

He that is at ease seeks dainties. English Proverb
