Emotional eating is a disorder. When one feels depressed, sad, incomplete, they eat to fill the hole that is empty within them. Most common food of choice is as follows: Chocolate, mashed potatoes, popcorn, french fries, ICE CREAM, cake, burritos, trail mix, anything one is craving pretty much, etc. You get the idea. It is a vicious cycle that does not seem to quit until one finds happiness again through other means than food.
Sally has just been dumped by Jimmy. She feels lost and alone without him. To make herself feel better, she runs out to the nearest supermarket to buy a pint of Ben & Jerrys which she will eat in it's entirety to feel whole again. She has fallen into the trap of emotional eating.
