** Also, there are nalfeshnee, demons that are just below balors in terms of social rank in the Abyss and actual power, who are often depicted like this, especially in the 4th Edition, where they are given a background. They were descended from the Waddling Legions, soldiers spawned by a powerful Primordial who was slain during the war between the Primordials and the gods. His minions devoured his corpse (they saw this as a respectful gesture for some reason) and as a result, absorbed his power, becoming the powerful nalfeshnee. The same source states that their gluttony is legendary, as is [[ToServeMan their tendency to treat other beings as food.]] They tend to group other beings in three categories, "Fit to eat" (which is most other creatures, including other demons), "Fit to use" (which is any being weaker than they are that is inedible to them for some reason), and "Fit to serve" (a small group reserved for beings that are obviously more powerful than they are, at which point they quickly turn from egotistical blowhards into groveling cowards.)

->"In case you were still wondering, yes, he's THAT fat! He's [[AC: ORCA!]] He's horrific!"

Banika Conchita desires for only the most gruesome in the world. Why is she a Villainous Glutton? [[spoiler:It's because when her chef asks for leave, she eats him instead, and soon following him are the maid and servant. When there's nothing left she finally eats herself.]] Expanded on further in the [[LightNovel/EvilFoodEaterConchita tie-in novel]], which reduces the villainy of her [[spoiler: eating the chef]] but slowly details her descent into a monster willing to wage wars with undead soldiers instead.

** Eating is the biggest vice of beholders; according to the 3rd edition {{Sourcebook}} ''Codex Anathema'', they actually don't have a sense of taste, but take pleasure from enjoying the physical texture of foods, especially crunchy live prey like humans. Because they can watch themselves eat with their long eyestalks, they also enjoy vibrantly colored food. And they eat a lot of it--up to 200 pounds in a single sitting.
** In the 3rd Edition, there were Famine Spirits, incredibly powerful undead beings who could eat more in a day than fifty men could eat in a week. They were so-named because the appetite of one of them could ''literally'' cause a famine in a populated area if it was left unchecked.

* The Vorshes in ''Webcomic/{{Jack|DavidHopkins}}'' are Gluttony personified. They are vicious demonic cannibals but in a subversion are extremely emaciated, and cannot gain any enjoyment from their food.

* In ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer40000}}'', the C'tan were driven by nothing but a desire to consume. At first they fed on radiation from stars. Then the Necrontyr approached them and gave them new bodies in the hopes that the C'tan would give them an edge in their war against the Old Ones. The C'tan, now more intelligent and aware of the universe around them while still being the gluttonous beings they always were, manipulated the Necrontyr into swearing fealty to them. Once the terrible pact was made, the C'tan promptly turned the entire race into the robotic Necrons, feasting on their lifeforce and souls in the process. It was then that they realized how much more appetizing souls were than radiation, and dedicated themselves to devouring the souls of every living being. In the end, this defining trait of the C'tan led to their downfall. Supposedly, Cegorach the Laughing God manipulated one of the C'tan into eating others, which caused a downward spiral of infighting and cannibalism that reduced the power of the C'tan to the point that the Necrons were able to shatter and imprison them. The C'tan did not learn anything from this: even after being shattered and made into slaves by their former slaves, they ''still'' want to eat everyone. The Necrons work very hard to prevent C'tan shards from merging into Transcendant C'tan for this reason: they know that the first thing the reborn Star God will do is go on a feeding frenzy -- and they will be the first course.

If the Villainous Glutton also eats in a way that's just plain disgusting, he's got JabbaTableManners; if his meal consists of endangered species or something similar, it may be an ExoticEntree. See also AdiposeRex (specifically for obese monarchs), FatSweatySouthernerInAWhiteSuit and SevenDeadlySins. Contrast FatBastard (a character who really ''is'' fat and is a {{Jerkass}}, but may or may not be an actual villain) and {{Gonk}} (an anime trope usually played for a combination of Squick and Comic Relief).

Historically, this was a favorite charge of historians trying to tarnish the name of a political enemy. The Romans were particularly fond of the tactic; EmperorCaligula and Elagabalus got it particularly hard, although it probably had some basis in fact.
