piggish
Like a swine
Piggish means resembling a pig in behavior—greedy, gluttonous, or slovenly.
Someone with piggish table manners eats messily and takes more than their share.
The word carries contempt: Don't be so piggish with the appetizers.
It can extend beyond food to any selfish overconsumption.
