I have this tendency to watch Food Network or shows like Top Chef, Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations, or Man vs. Food when I am super hungry. Like stomach eating itself hungry. I don't know why I torture myself, but it's something that happens on a regular basis.
Yesterday, it was Nigella Feasts on The Cooking Channel with Nigella Lawson. I think Nigella is all right. She is definitely better than G-AH-DAH De Laurentiis or Ina "I'm swimming in money" Garten on hosting for sure, but they all make food I'd like to eat happily and making "nom" noises to.
She was making some sort of dessert that had chocolate in it and looked whipped and AWESOME. Not to mention golden cornbread and, coming up, guacamole with a few other things. My stomach literally went into food rage. I was hungry before, but now it went to "HOW DARE YOU MOCK ME?!!" state of hunger. This, of course, unlocked my hypoglycemia. I rushed to the kitchen, heated up some leftovers, and changed the channel (after friend and fiance both told me to).
And this isn't just a one time occurrence. I've done it plenty of times before and will continue to do it. I just need to learn to eat before I watch them. Otherwise I see something delicious and might starting looking at my hands in hunger.
