gluttons
Those who overindulge
Gluttons are people who eat to excess, indulging beyond need or reason.
The word carries moral judgment—gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins.
Extended beyond food, gluttons pursue anything to excess: a glutton for punishment describes someone who keeps subjecting themselves to difficulty or pain.
A glutton is also another name for the wolverine, known for its voracious appetite.
