gastronome

n. the proper scientific term for individuals who consume gourmet or upper-class food and drink for recreational or self-deceptive purposes; also known as "foodies". These people may also refer to themselves as "gastronomists", but don't listen to them.
You: "I guess you could call me a foodie, or gastronome, or even a gastronomist!"
Me: "I'm going to call you a pretentious fat turd instead."
