After you smoke weed and you feel really really hungry so you just eat and eat and eat and eat and eat and eat and eat and eat...
After we finish the Captain Crunch and Oreos and Animal Crackers and Goldfish and Chips and Bread amd lettuce we can order some pizza... Damn I got the Munchies.
consumption of rediculous amounts of food, usually junk food, after smoking marijuana. contrary to popular belief, you aren't actually "hungry" persay- it's more like you lose self control when you're high. you don't care if you get fat, you just crave the sensation of eating, like if you'd never eaten before. you also don't ever feel full even though you might be aware that you are.
"I had some powerful munchies last night. I had a bratworst and drank some straight mustard, and six almond joys and some salted cheetoes with ketchup and pepper"
"I got the munchies like a mofo. got any cookies?"
After toking, everything just tastes like, well, magic.
If you smoke at home, you'll find when you sober up that all the food you would normally not eat because of expiry date or it just plainly tastes like shit is gone.
