    The joke is that at the time of shopping we decide to be strong and be hungry, but when the time comes to test that determination, we don’t have the strength of our past well-fed self.

    Also snacks imply something besides dinner.

      I’m still confused. I thought the Snack situation was,

      1. You’re hungry,

      2. The chips are ready to eat,

      3. You eat the chips.

      So if there are no chips, you have to make something to eat instead, which becomes de facto Dinner. So the No Snack situation is

      1. You’re hungry,

      2a. There is no food ready to eat,

      2b. You make food to eat,

      1. You eat the food.

      I might be off base here, but I don’t snack, and I actually don’t understand.
