Grammar
What is the man concerned about?
The below is a piece of voice conversation (An audio file output) that I am putting exactly in written. So there might be spoken English grammatical errors.
Woman: Have you decided what you would like to order?
Man: I am not sure yet. Everything on the menu looks delicious. What do you recommend?
Woman: How about the sea bass with the chef’s sauce?
Man: That sounds interesting. What’s in the sauce?
Woman: It’s a tomato Cream sauce. It’s rich but really good. Man: Hmm… I really shouldn't eat anything that heavy. I am trying to lose 15 pound before the summer. But I suppose once in a while rick taste can be heard.
What is the man concerned about?
A: He is not sure that he will be able to afford rich dish.
B: He is worried about eating food that is bad for his diet.
C: He doesn’t feel that the sea bass is very special.
C is out of choice. I am confused between A and B.
I think the answer is B as per the last statement from the Man "I really shouldn't eat anything that is heavy"?
please suggest.

Thanks Mister for pointing it out. I listen the audio again the sentence goes as below.
"But I suppose once in a while a rich taste can hurt."
So keeping this in mind, i think choice B will be correct.
Please suggest.

I think it was this, actually:
"But I suppose once in a while a rich taste can't hurt."
However, 'rich taste' here sounds a little odd, so I suspect it is something different—something like a 'little taste'.

Hi Mister,
Thanks for your input. i have tried to attached the audio. Please have a look at the last sentence.
I agree with you it can be "Can't" but the voice is not that clear towards the end.
But if that is the case then still B will be the Ans or you recommend A.

Oh, B is the correct answer in any case.
This is what he says:
But I suppose once in a while a rich dish can't hurt.
