This just makes too much sense to not be true. Is there any scientific basis for it?
Tamasic hunger: deep and inertial, at the expense of intensity. Enjoys dark, browned, and heavy foods. Beef, coffee, caramel, plums, dried apricots, cinnamon. Enjoys dark sugar. Bread, especially whole wheat
Rajasic hunger: intense, but shallow and shorter lasting. Enjoys lighter meats (pork thru fish). Enjoys sour salty and umami flavors. Prefers rice.
Sattvic hunger: subtle and almost not there, eating solely for sustenance. Non addictive and little sense of satisfaction upon sating the hunger. Made up mostly of reproductive foods. Milk, fruit, sugar, and small lentils.
