Haven't seen the episode yet (haven't even watched ep 113 yet, actually), but I wanted to bring something to light:

Sort of. It's apparently a convention in Japanese media and film to use overeating as a gag. Everyone remember how Goku ate enough for 50 people at every meal? That was supposed to be hilarious. It's really just a cultural joke, based on the Japanese idea that modesty and moderation are virtues, or ideal character traits. Just like Peter Griffin is funny because he does some pretty unconventional/uncouth things, so too is any anime character who plows through 77 bowls of Miso.

It's also the reason you sometimes see anime characters mumbling "I can't eat another bite" or "I'm so full" in their sleep.
