GULOSITY — [Noun] Excessive appetite or greed, especially in eating; gluttony. From Late Latin gulōsitātem, from Latin gulōsus ("gluttonous"), from gula ("throat, appetite") + -ōsus ("-ose, full of") + -itās ("-ity, forming nouns"). Unlike "voracity" (which suggests a wolfish, single-minded devouring) or "rapacity" (which claws after wealth or power), gulosity is the slow, indulgent sin of excess—the vice of the gourmand rather than the predator. It is the Roman patrician gorging on dormice dipped in honey, the greasy fingerprints on the rim of a silver platter, the modern buffet plate piled high with a shameful tower of desserts—each bite a fleeting triumph over the emptiness that always returns.
