someone with a sweet tooth is not a sweet teeth.
And they're not necessarily someone who eats a lot, they just have a preference and weakness for sweet snacks.
So maybe they have a smaller meal because they MUST have a dessert and they cannot resist the stuff that their friends think is too sweet.

你知道什么是“戆居”吗？

Don't you think #2、#5 and possibly #7 are all Chinese?

中国人就一定懂其他地区的方言？持这个观点的，就是“戆居”。

要说这“好吃狗”。本意是重庆方言话。是喜欢吃的称呼，是海吃，大吃特吃之意，也有“谗猫”的说法，是地地道道的“吃”的方言，其意思更加深刻，富有新颖了。为什么要在“好吃”的后面加一个“狗”字呢？有外地的朋友问过我这个问题。

I think fragile_para is over-generalizing a little bit. There are certainly "foreigners" (excluding most Westerners, I guess) who do eat dogs.

OK I guess there could be... not too sure who, mind you. But I can't authoritatively deny it 100%.
But definitely not a practise common in "the West".

What I have specifically in mind are the Koreans, who definitely qualify as "foreigners" from the Chinese point of view.
