    Is binging on fruits a thing humans do?

      And why would it be any different from binging on a variety of other substances containing the same ingredient in common?

        Habit? Tradition? There are establishments in town that sell beer, wine, whiskey, or cidre. It’s a thing, people do.

          From a health perspective, I mean. If wine and beer and vodka all cause cancer, well wine is closer to a rotting pear than to the other two.

          (Maybe you mistook me for OP)

            I follow your logic. The alcohol in rotting fruit is the same substance in our drinks and most likely has the same effect. But, is this a problem that needs research? Who eats their booze?
