Perhaps he's alluding to the expression "a healthy appetite".
However, what that means is not eating like a glutton, but
having the appetite of a healthy person, as opposed to the
weak appetite of a sick person.

The dictionary informs me that--informally--"healthy" can
denote "considerable in size or amount", such as "a healthy
glug of vodka in a pitcher of orange juice". It's odd
that Sheldon would suddenly use the informal definition,
when throughout this thread he's been a stickler for what
he believes to be correct usage.
