CRAVING CONTROL: WHAT YOUR MIDNIGHT SNACK SAYS ABOUT YOU

It’s past midnight. The world is quiet, but your stomach isn’t. You open the fridge, illuminated by its soft glow, and reach for something — sweet, salty, crunchy, or creamy.

Your midnight snack, it turns out, might be saying more about you than you realise.
