Why is it that alcohol makes me crave crappy food?!

thats a great question which i really wish i knew the answer too. Personally i think its because alcohol is a depressant and your brain wants something to replenish that dopamine inbalance so it craves tasty burritos and such to make you feel good. I recall reading something that said alcohol throws off your blood sugar so that may have somthing to do with it too... not sure

I crave salt when I drink, beer or liquor. But I stick to things like olives, nuts, popcorn, crackers & cheese, tortilla chips & salsa/con queso/guacamole, etc. While these snacks are not ideal, like with anything it's perfectly fine on occasion. Ntm, you can adjust your overall daily intake before & after to accommodate AND there are healthier versions of most snacks these days. Enjoy without guilt but make up for the 'indulgence' with extra fruits, veggies & h2o throughout the day & day after ;)

alcohol is a type of sugar that spikes your blood pressure which will make you crave more! also the hops (spelling?) in bear stimulates hunger i actually read an article how they give hops to people going through chemo. also poor judgment lol when your drunk you kind of just don't care what your doing most the time why would u care what you eat. Haha i think everyone has this problem

All I know is I normally do not care for Doritos....
