There has to be a difference between epicure and greed: but do you really want to choose?

Moldy goat cheese versus chocolate and hazelnut ice cream; “just a little piece – yes, that’s enough” versus “no thank you – I will take the whole ice cream box”; intense, rich and long-lasting versus salt, sugar and fat. What would your mind choose and how does your body reply?

We are hungry beings and with so much food easily available – how do we eat less of it? By maximizing the flavours to make you mentally satisfied? I try to eat as much whole foodstuff as possible and thereby reducing the amount of easily available energy and increasing the amount of nutrients. But I do enjoy to take a big bite of that juicy hamburger with fat that melts around your lips and tomatoes that fills your mouth of roundness. With a salty mayonnaise on the side. With that said: the hamburger can be full of flavour and nutrients; it doesn’t need to be a slur of destroyed ingredients. By doing some greedy food epicure, maybe there’s a new choice available.
