After so many bites, a food loses it's taste appeal and it's just mindless eating, boring and uh...blanking out. It's kind of how the first cookie tastes compared to the second, or the first 3 bites of something. Really, if I pay attention, and I do...I get bored/tired of eating it. However, with distractions, and T.V. is the WORST OFFENDER (especially combined with mega monster money stress you want to download/transfer), you are prey to the random eating thing.
Lol! I feel like sending you a bag of Werthers or Jolly Ranchers or JellyBelly's, Jaime. When I feel vulnerable to the zombie eating thing, I get really infantile with the food and hit the licorice, scotch mints, altoids, and truly walk around with a big sucker or (not any more, dried fruit!) HOT TAMALES (those really rock!) and SWEET TARTS and most suckers. (Not candy corn--it's vile) The salivatory gratification makes it last longer. Actually most binge foods are really excessively seasoned or rich and make you salivate. At worst/best later you feel like you ate nail polish when you hit the candy stuff. I love the candy that they give you at Indian/Curry restaurants for dessert! I'd skip dinner for those candies. The inner child energy really helps with the stress, and I know that there's a connection...the land/language of forgetting, until the next morning and then the payback arrives. Mega-food hangover.
And then we start all over again.
This food stuff is really bizarre. Oh man, now I want some popsicles. Lol! I wonder if they still make those "Popeye
Cigarettes?" Have you read any Geneen Roth? She really hits home, for me, personally. I've learned, over the years, that I have a really ravenous heart.
Kate.
