snack attack
Urgent food urge
A snack attack is a sudden, intense craving for food between meals—the urge strikes like an attack you can't ignore.
The phrase is lighthearted, treating hunger pangs as an external force: I had a snack attack and demolished half a bag of chips.
Sometimes used to justify impulsive eating.
