Indulging what behavior specifically? The use of new ingredients?
Overconsumption.
Why does a new and possibly healthier ingredient need to imply overconsumption?

And what exactly is overconsumption? Isn't it eating more than our body needs? If I eat more of an ingredient that provides fewer nutrients then there is no overconsumption, correct? Or are you looking for a world where we should only eat the most nutrient dense food because of ?
