Eat out of house and home ( 吃光所有食物 )
大家有否听过Eat out of house and home 呢？谁人会有本领把整间屋吃掉？当然就是那些胃口极大的人呢！不过，这个成语并不是指人吃掉了整间屋，而是指把所有食物吃光。
从以下的例句，便更能明白这成语的用法。
“ Tom has a very good appetite today. He eats us out of house and home.” ( Tom 今天的胃口真好！他差不多吃掉我们家中所有的食物。)
所以，Eat someone out of house and home，是指胃口极大，能吃光自己或别人家中的食物的意思。
