My mother said something similar...."Clean your plate because there are starving children in China!" I never understood it, but it worked.
I generously offered to send my plate to China when we had liver and onions for supper once. I had to sit there and eat every bit of it. I didn't offer again....I hope the kids didn't starve because I sure wished I could have starved that night. Yuck!
