It's a corruption of the French word Manger meaning 'to eat'. During the first world war Australian soldiers found pronunciations of critical French words hard to master.

Get the Cock Munching mug.The insane hunger that starts to creep up on you the longer you stay up after midnight. By the time it gets to 3, maybe 4am, you're completely ravenous.
Kayla and I decided to pull an all-nighter, but her mom caught us grabbing snacks at 2am and told us to go to bed. Damn After-Midnight Munchies!

Get the Carpet Munching mug.The extreme munchies that one will get after smoking a massive amount of weed through conventional method, ie (blunt, joint, bowl or bong) and then chase it with pot brownies in hopes of satisfying the first set of munchies. Not only will you be blown off your ass, your munchies will match or surpass that of children starving in Africa.
We smoked 3 bowls each and a blunt, then intentionally ate a whole batch of brownies that just looked so good and gooey, after that we had the African Munchies.
