You ever seen an actual food addict? We arent “all addicted to food.” Some people have to consciously force rhemselves to eat. Most people eat, get full and stop. That’s not addiction obviously.

The food addict on tthr other hand will eat, and eat and eat. He will not feel full at any point until his gut is in agony. Even then he may feel hunger. That is hood addiction.

Having said that most prople aren’t food addicts, just gluttons.

I was just making the point that everybody has to be addicted to food. If you weren’t, you wouldn’t eat and would die.

But, yes, there are extreme variations to the “addiction.”

I knew a family whose son had some sort of legit physiological disease where he always felt insatiably hungry. It would probably kill him someday. They had to literally lock the pantry and refrigerator.
