Anyone get the munchies when drunk?
 

I have noticed that I dont really get the munchies when high (which, granted, is very infrequently), but I can eat like a champ when drunk. I always break out the cheez-its, triscuits, cereal, whatever, and eat WAY more than normal.

Last night I drank way too much wine with the parents and put down an 18oz steak, two baked potatoes, some salad, and two bowls of ice cream in 20 minutes. This is way more than I normally eat, and I wasnt even hungry.

Anyone else get the munchies when drunk?

I only crave salty foods like chips, peanuts, etc when drunk.

Mmmmmm.... fooooooood..... lol

I usually crave greasy-ass food that I wouldn't usually eat. Example: When sober I am abbhorent (sp?) of Filiberto's... drunk... Mmmmmm.... yummy.....

Honestly, I can't really remember if I get hungry when im drunk.


:D

Alcohol gets me really hungry -- even before it gets me drunk.

I like to eat really greasy foods especially, but will eat copious quantities of anything available.

I like to have cocktails before large dinners for this reason.

Not me, very interesting that you do though.

High, drunk, for me its all the same. Im starving!

sometimes I do sometimes I dont... it's a coin toss when I've been drinking.

I don't really get the munchies when I'm drunk but I really like a nice piece of ass though. It makes it better when she's not a bitch too.

I don't really crave foods when I've been drinking, but if any amount of it at all is planted in front of me, I will devour it in record time. I also take to smoking cigars when drunk for some reason, so maybe it's just an oral thing.

i can throw a mad munch when drunk we are usually prepared for it though so it is all gravy

Don't get hungry WHILE I'm drinkin'. But anything near my mouth 6-8 hours later is in danger. I have a theory that alcohol provides me with some sugar that keeps me from being hungry, but that it drops off suddenly about 8 hours after I stop drinking. Hence the sudden hunger.

Yeah. I used to think that I only craved junk foods until the other night. That wine did me in, I was about to eat us out of the house.

Exactly the opposite for me. I could be ravenous, but after my first drink I'm not the least bit hungry. In fact, after that first drink, I could have a world class meal in front of me and I have zero interest in eating.

I don't get the munchies...I just feel like I'm starving. Ordering a pizza usually solves that problem :)

I eat some crazy stuff when I am drunk.

Sometimes, I go to the WAWA and get a huge sub with extra everything that falls apart all over me while I eat it.

Other times we go to this diner in Georgetown, and get a late night drunken breakfast.

I almost have to eat if I have been drinking a lot, or I won't sober up enough to be able to sleep.

I'm another one that craves greasy food when drunk. Actually it doesn't happen every time I'm drunk... I don't really know what causes it; it doesn't seem to be what I'm drinking because I drink beer almost exclusively.

Yeah.. greasy food is the best when you're pissed.

There's these little fried triangle things (I think they're Indonesian or Indian.. someone told me once.. but I was pissed hehe) that I hate normally.. but when I'm pissed.. they're the best.

Maccas (McDonalds) is also great.

I get starving when drunk, which is really bad since the only time I ever get drunk is late at night, so I'll eat a huge meal, and then have horrible heartburn all night, ack!

I get hungry as well.

But I don't eat. That would ruin the buzz.

It depends on how I ate during that day but I used to NEVER eat when I drank it would make me sick but I got used to it and now I do it with pickies little things or at the end of the night when I am done drinking I may feast a little bit!!

heh when im drunk i find myself wanting some taco bell. I wont touch the stuff if im sober but once im drunk i start craving it.

the 4am kebab is always such a great idea... all that overcooked lamb, wiltered salad, garlic sauce that could stop a freight train wrapped up in last weeks pita.. but damn, its good when your drunk.

makes for a nasty AGB the next day though..

gardedo's baby, OMG...that is all I crave when i drink...with all of it's different little pretzels and little bread thingys...can't get enough of it's seasoned goodness.... *drool*

Once it gets late and I have been drinking for a wihle, I really need something greasy. Hamburgers, onion rings or tacos are the usual victims.

I really get worse munchies with alcohol than green. Its about the only time I eat at jack in the box.

Ohhh yeah. I usually just snack on whatever I can find.

nah, only very rarely when high....

ganja is the reason marshmallows were invented

Yeah, its always nasty food that I crave.

For some reason, I have noticed the same thing when I get back from strenuous physical activity, usually mountain biking. My friend and I used to go to Taco Bell and order 10 bean burritos and eat them all, at 400 calories each. Im sure Plan9 is having a heart attack just reading that.

same here

i get drunk i swear i could eat pure slat

Thats why del taco is open 24 hrs isnt it? :p

yes... i do

After my freshman year at college subway started closing at 11 or midnight instead of 1 or 2...

i like to eat chips and things like that when drinking, i also smoke alot too

negative.. i just get full

when i drink beer i get hungry
then i get bloated cos i eat too much
and im allergic to garlic and it seems all pub foods have garlic
and i get dually sick


nasty process :P

i get the barfies when drunk, no munchies though

alchohol lowers your blood sugar, which makes you feel like your hungry. but you'll just get fat from eating too much

Yes anything greasy is good after some lagers... out on the town in my city it finally hit me that others also see a correlation between drunkeness and munchies.

For instance, kebab shops are open 24 hours near this student bar/club that has cheap drink night on Wednesdays.

Also on the main "strip" in town it has takeaway food shops (like kebabs mmmmm) serving food well into the night.
