A כהן was at a סעודה where tasty but small portions of meat were served.  He looked at them and sighed.  When asked why he was sighing, the כהן responded: “I’m sighing over the חורבן בית המקדש.”  “What does the חורבן have to do with this סעודה?” he was asked.  The כהן answered:  “If the בית המקדש were still קיים, I would be זוכה to the חזה and the שוק.”
