Developing a taste for something and then having to cut it out is a lot harder than never developing the taste. We see this in plenty of areas as Christians: music, books, movies, clothing, scrolling the internet...we do not encourage living fast and loose and then reigning it in before it is "too late" in any area but eating I'd say.
