They argue that the French word for the sin - gourmandise - has changed its meaning over the years and is now used to denote a gourmet, someone who truly appreciates good food and wine, rather than a glutton.

And the English word for the sin is gluttony, so I guess it is appropriate. I wonder what it is in Latin?
