Merriam-Webster Dictionary
gravy train
noun
: a much exploited source of easy money
 
Wikipedia: Sauce boat
A sauce boat, gravy boat, or saucière is a low jug or pitcher with a handle in which sauce or gravy is served. The typical shape is considered boat-like, hence the name. It often sits on a matching saucer, sometimes attached to the pitcher, to catch dripping sauce.

The existence of a gravy boat and a gravy train suggests the existence of an entire gravy transportation system that we should look into adopting.
An ideal subject for discussion at Thanksgiving dinner…
