"One should eat to live, not live to eat"
I agree 100% with Benjamin Franklin on this one. I don't believe food is here for us to enjoy at our leisure. We definitely all have to eat, and sure, when you're eating something delicious of course you will enjoy it, but what I mean is that you shouldn't eat whatever you want, whenever you want to. Pigging out and stuffing your face with tasty meals and treats occasionally is acceptable but once it becomes a way of life, it will prove unhealthy and can be very dangerous.
The idea that food should not be one's primary source of relief and enjoyment is pretty much what Mr. Franklin was getting at.
