Once high, my brain goes into full-bore cookie-monster mode with an intensity that has been horrible for my body and pantry. As far as I can tell, THC relaxes my insides to the point where there is ZERO satiety reflex. Even the uncomfortable sensation of a full stomach is dialed all the way down to nothing. Then things start to wear off and... oh man, the bill comes due. This leads to my call for help: how do you deal with this?

Is there some combo of activities or foods that help? How about drinks (mostly water) that scratch that itch? Should I just be eating cucumbers or watermelon the whole time? Or maybe there some other cannabinoid blend/ratio that doesn't hit like this? Thanks.

When I get the munchies I kind of have the same problem is I have junk food. I can eat infinite Skittles and cheetos without blinking an eye. The key is to find what "primal craving" these snacks are engineered to hit. For sweet treats like Skittles I like to replace with grapes especially a fancy grape. For salty my replacement is usually nuts. The best thing I have found for all purpose is a homemade trail mix. The nuts, dried fruits and occasional chocolate thing is amazing. It's satisfying, a great sensory experience, the variety really hits my high brain and it's mostly healthy. I have a huge contain that I refresh when it gets low. You can put in anything in it and easy and cheap to get the single variety nuts. Even fancy nuts like cashews are cheaper in the long run. It's also makes you so thirst so make sure you got water but that also fills you up.
