Nowadays, eating at a buffet has become a trend. It not only avoids the "cross-infection" from sharing saliva, but also reduces food waste, and the price is quite reasonable.
It should be reminded that if you don't exercise self-control during the meal, for fear of losing out, you might pick and choose what you eat, leading to eating too much greasy food, an unbalanced diet, or overeating. Binge eating is very harmful. This is because overeating can cause gastric dilation and gastric perforation. According to statistics, most patients with gastric perforation have a history of binge eating. Binge eating can also induce acute pancreatitis, with about 30% of pancreatitis cases being caused by it. Overeating can also trigger acute attacks of cholecystitis and gallstones. Therefore, diners must exercise self-control and not let small gains lead to major losses, thereby damaging their health.
