He's not fat, but it's definitely his one true passion right now.
I submit the following as evidence:
He likes to eat Barbecue at Sticky Fingers,

he likes to eat cole slaw at his Pa's birthday party,

he likes to eat sitting in a chair at daycare,

he likes to eat mashed potatoes with a spoon at Applebees,

he likes to eat mashed potatoes with his hands at Applebees,

he likes to eat in the highchair at Wednesday night church dinner,

and he likes to eat in his high chair at home!

I know you'll think this is corny but... I've said a mouthful!
