Type in a well known (or not so well known) proverb but add another line that either improves the saying or distracts from it.

Two many cooks spoil the broth.
But at least you won’t go hungry.

Unless you're in a four-poster with them when they are off duty.

Too many cooks spoil the broth --
by not washing their hands and thereby adding salmonella to the mix.
