You eat those like water!

He said a wife was chastising her husband and realized the phrase was a mixture of “you eat them like candy” (usually referring to someone taking too many items, usually pills) and “you drink that like it was water” (drinking too much, usually alcohol). Of course, the husband may have been on a liquid diet. Thanks to Steve for sending this one in!
