Is it wrong to eat just because something tastes good? Fr Columba shares Fr Mike Schmitz's teaching on the two purposes of eating, nourishment and pleasure, and explains why pursuing either one on its own is fine, but working against the other becomes a problem. He applies the same principle to gluttony and temperance, showing that enjoying good food is part of how God built us, not something to feel guilty about. If you've ever felt torn between discipline and enjoyment at the table, this offers a simple way to think it through.
