I have a fairly high metabolism. And, I'm growing a baby. So, yes, I eat a lot. :)
Everyone has different reasons for eating a lot. Some people, like you said, are growing; they have to eat a lot to keep up with their metabolism. Others eat a lot because they enjoy food and have easy access to eat. There are also those who eat out of boredom or to cope with other emotional needs. Culture is another factor. Some people are raised to eat everything put in front of them, and as commercial serving sizes increase, so does the amount of food they take in. There are also some medical conditions that can cause people to eat excessively, but those are pretty rare.
Hunger is probably the main reason. Boredom is another. then you can add gluttony, plain greediness etc etc. Or they simply like to eat. The actual reasons are probably as individual as fingerprints.
