Gastronomy is the art of choosing, cooking and eating good food. Gastrology is the same thing, but based on the movement of the stars.

Gastronomy is the study of food, its relationships with culture and history, and the art of its preparation.
Gastrology is telling fortunes by looking at dirty dinner plates.
