In our age one is not allowed to talk about gluttony.

It is the primary vehicle by which many sustain an otherwise meaningless existence

Gluttony is more about malnutrition than existentialism. When our food doesn't give us what our body demands it does the expected animal thing, it keeps eating. A purpose in life is nice, but the more immediate purpose is to find and eat the foods with the highest possible nutritional density for you. Do that and in most cases the gluttony goes away. Mine did.
