How to use "Gluttonous" in context?
Imagine, if you will, living in a world where food is so abundant that it becomes a concern rather than a need. In this world, there would be no need for famine, as the population would be so large that everyone could eat whatever they pleased.
Such is not the world we live in. In fact, for many people around the world, food is so scarce that it is a constant worry.And for those of us who are more than a little bit overweight, it can become an obsession.
The problem with being gluttonous is that it can not only lead to obesity, but also numerous other health problems.
