greedy guts

Never stops eating

Greedy guts is a playful insult for someone who eats too much or takes more than their share.

It's childhood language, the kind of taunt kids throw at siblings reaching for the last cookie: Don't be such a greedy guts.

Adults use it with affectionate irony rather than real spite.
