Stress is named as the top reason most of us snack. Stress caused by our hectic lifestyle or an emotional situation we want to avoid. When we are bored and have nothing to do to make time pass by. It's basically a way to entertain our mind when we have nothing to do. It could make us eat uncontrollably and we may not even realize it. It may even be a habit we have developed over time.
