Gluttony

A woodcut representing Gluttony
Gula - The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things, by Hieronymus Bosch

Gluttony (Latin:gula), derived from the Latin gluttire meaning to gulp down or swallow, means over-indulgence and over-consumption of food, drink, or wealth items to the point of extravagance or waste.

In Christianity, it is considered a sin if the excessive desire for food causes it to be withheld from the needy. Some Christian denominations consider gluttony as one of the seven deadly sins, a misplaced or inordinate desire for food/drink.
