Humans are basically animals that have the ability to think critically and then disregard their instincts.

You may overlook the obvious fact that animals don’t eat 3 meals per day every day. Animals eat when they can because they’re unlikely to eat again for days in some cases.

Some animals overeat and carry the food back to their young in their belly to throw up for their pups. It’s entirely possible that humans used to do this for young children.
