Don't find your mamma in it

Don't dig into food too deep.

An idiom, usually spoken in a buffet line, by the guy behind you, when you are spooning out food.
(A vague reference to exhuming a body.)
Hey dude, ease up on that potato salad... Don't find your mamma in it.

Don't find your mamma in it

Don't dig too deep. Or, save some food for somebody else.

Old folk say that to each other, to keep from scooping up too much from the food bowl in the buffet line.
