FOOD ADDICT
If food captures your thought so
that you cannot resist it, you are a glutton. If you are not
possessed by it and partake freely of all kinds of food to the
extent your body requires it, you are not a glutton.
Almighty God has given sweetness to
every kind of food, and a person who receives it with thankfulness
suffers no harm. But passionate attachments should always be
avoided, for it does harm to the soul.
St. Barsanuphius
