crunchy food for anxiety

All this weekend I've been quite anxious about work and having failed my course.

Anyway, I noticed that I've been craving 'crunchy foods' stuff, like liquorice torpedoes and oddly carrots (which I had with guacomole and were lovely).

So I have a question for IEers. Does your mood affect the type of food you want to eat?

e.g
Crunchy = anxious, frustrated
Soft food (ice cream) = want to relax

Or am i going mad?

    Yes definitely!

    I think sometimes it's the feel on chocolate in my mouth that is almost even better than the taste. Strange!

    Oh your not going mad at all. I crave cheese when I feel happy and relaxed!

    Yup.

    When I am down it is all crisps, peanuts and Bombay mix. Usually with a cheese sandwich.

    When happy, sweet things or a restaurant.

    When my brain is in gear and I am concentrating on a technical problem, no food at all.
