The sea-bird, "gannet", is used as a symbol of gluttony or ravenous eating. It appears with that meaning in at least two current slang and dialect dictionaries. The citations I am finding are mostly for eating "like a gannet". I assume this does not illustrate use. DCDuring TALK 21:13, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
