As they spoke with Max in Gasa's isolated island village, the old scouts were overcome again and again—by the memory of Kennedy, by the thought that their efforts have not been forgotten, and by the joy of being reunited for the first time since the war.
Both Kumana and Gasa live much as their ancestors did, without electricity, in leaf-roof huts, with dugouts as their main form of transportation.

 pesachim18
The Rashbam proves this from a sugya in Yevamot (40a), which explicitly states (according to most Rishonim) that akhila gasa is not considered eating, both regarding the fulfillment of mitzvot which require eating (e.g., the mitzva incumbent on the kohen to eat certain sacrifices), and regarding violating the prohibition to eat (e.g., on Yom Kippur).
Accordingly, the concern in our sugya that one not reach a state of akhila gasa, is in order to ensure the basic fulfillment of this mitzva.
According to them, the akhila gasa in our sugya refers to the type mentioned in Nazir, which is within the halakhic parameters of akhila.

 G-Protein Signaling Mediates Asexual Development at 25{degrees}C but Has No Effect on Yeast-Like Growth at 37{degrees}C ...
The region predicted to encode the GasA protein is indicated by gray boxes representing the exons, interrupted by three introns.
GasA signaling at 25°C involves a cAMP-PKA pathway in the regulation of asexual development and the expression of the core regulatory factors BrlA and AbaA.
GasA has no apparent role during yeast cell morphogenesis at 37°C. Therefore, we hypothesize the presence of a brlA repressor (fl box) as well as an abaA activator (white box) which are independent of GasA signaling at this temperature.
