Thanks guys
Thanks, I wasn't sure I was dividing the Scripture properly.
Just another thought, which may be completely off....but what comes to my mind also is the tie in to riotous living.
Proverbs 28:7 brings up the shame of the company of riotous men.
Pr 28:7 ¶ Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.
Riotous can have the meaning of gluttonous.

a primitive root [compare 02107]; v; {See TWOT on 553}
AV-flow down 2, vile 2, glutton 2, riotous eaters 1, riotous 1; 8
In the New Testament, riotous has more of a sense of wild and wanton.
The prodigal son comes to mind as an example of a rebellious son who spends his inheritance on riotous living.
Lu 15:13 And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
The following verses, I think, also give us more of the gist of the attitude behind gluttony.
Ro 13:13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
Ro 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
1Pe 4:3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
1Pe 4:4 ¶ Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
2Pe 2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
