Things can still taste good, even if you don't need to eat it to survive, presumably. Hook yourself up to an IV for nutrients, and you won't have to eat anymore, but you'll still miss the taste of food.
So simply for hedonistic purposes?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
