Why do we tend to snack at night?

[41srisuda049]

We often think of diet as the quality of the food we eat, but it really also includes when you eat.
The “night owls” who got less sleep overall had:
more fast food
more soda
fewer fruits and vegetables
larger portions of food later in the day
Overall, they ate about the same amount of calories per day as people who slept normally,
but calories consumed after 8:00 p.m. are more strongly associated with weight gain.

I think our brain's reward center is less receptive to food in the evening, which means that we need more high-calorie junk at night to satisfy a craving.
