That's the thing, though - raw fish and goblin meat are the few things Gollum still feels pleasure in. He hates everything else. Not sun/moon, not flowers, not music, not even good-tasting elvish food. Perhaps food is just such a basic necessity that not even the Ring can undo the pleasure of a full belly.
