* AppetiteEqualsHealth: Dean Winchester is a notorious Big Eater. This is why it's such a concern when Dean is the only one who doesn't have a voracious appetite. The horseman Famine is causing people to gorge themselves to death and his power is so strong it even effects the angel Castiel who normally doesn't need to eat, but suddenly finds himself uncontrollably downing red meat, a favorite food of his vessel, Jimmy Novak. In the end, Famine claims that the reason Dean isn't affected like everyone else is because Dean is already dead inside, so there's no hidden desire or appetite to stoke.
