Gastronomer: A biped of the human kind who never eats or drinks without being hungry or thirsty; who never swallows food before having thoroughly masticated it, and never masticates before having tasted it; who never eats or drinks anything the property of which is not known; never eats too much, even of quails, civet, or matelote; and never drinks too much, even of water.
Pierre Blot 1867
