“It's extraordinary how we go through life with eyes half shut, with
dull ears, with dormant thoughts. Perhaps it's just as well; and it may
be that it is this very dullness that makes life to the incalculable
majority so supportable and so welcome. Nevertheless, there can be but
few of us who had never known one of these rare moments of awakening
when we see, hear, understand ever so much—everything—in a flash—before
we fall back again into our agreeable somnolence.”
It all goes back to when we were tiny babies. "Humans are programmed to have an opioid (opiate-like) response to a protein found in milk (casein) so that infants will continue their desire to consume adequate amounts of their mother's milk. Cheese, which is a concentrated form of milk, also induces this effect. These protein compounds, called casomorphins, combined with the high amount of fat and salt are what is responsible for the popular obsession with cheese. Thus, the more you have, the more you crave—as devised by nature." From 25 Foods That Make You Hungrier https://www.eatthis.com/foods-that-make-you-hungry/
