(Of course, that doesn't even account for the fact that your commentator was just plain wrong about "abstain from those things that...carry the appearance of evil". Jesus Himself wouldn't even make it based on this understanding according to the *cough, cough* Pharisees.)
Unfortunately, most of the IFB churches I have been involved in, gluttony is a punchline to a joke, not sinful behavior.
