In British slang, a scoffer is someone who eats voraciously or in large quantities — a glutton. In the more general standard English sense, a scoffer is someone who mocks or scoffs at others. Both senses are in use; the eating sense is the more distinctly slangy British usage.
He was a legendary scoffer at work — never left a crumb from a team lunch.
