I love my food too but I also (at least used to) enjoy being active, it'd be nice to be able to smell and taste what I cook in future (or maybe not). I did just get a queer look asking for 20 packets of Extra Strong Mints, I was tempted to mention "I've just given up smoking" but I know the woman in the shop also gave up 5 years ago and I wasn't in the mood for a whole lecture on how easy she found it.
