In my childhood, hunger began the years my Mum stopped getting up to make us breakfast before school. But I didn’t know what I was doing. I didn’t know how to get us bathed, dressed in clean clothes, or otherwise tidied. So it’s never been about my relationship to food as my relationship to hunger. If not eating triggers my GI stuff, I know I’ll live.
