Have you ever found yourself wanting certain foods based on the mood you’re in? Some studies indicate that particular moods may trigger cravings for specific kinds of food. For instance, one study showed that people in a negative mood were more inclined to crave comfort foods such as pizza and ice cream. Those who were feeling more upbeat were more likely to crave healthier choices like fruits and vegetables.

As you can see, the way you feel can affect the kinds of foods you crave. If you’re feeling low, you may be more inclined to want comfort foods. If you’re feeling cheerful, you’re more likely to prefer healthier choices.

Of course, this represents only a limited amount of research, and everyone is different. Some individuals may discover that their mood has little or no impact on their food cravings. Even so, we’d like to try guessing how you’re feeling right now based on the kinds of food you’re in the mood for. Tell us whether we guessed correctly! And don’t be surprised if you get a different result when you take the quiz again at another time.
