Do other people re-check the fridge like new food magically appeared ?

r/

I swear I open it 7 times a day like it’s a vending machine that resets. Every time I’m bored I naturally just walk over to the fridge and check what’s inside. Why does this happen ? I genuinely don’t know the answer

    I re-check it – not because I believe the contents have changed, but because I know my standards have lowered.

    I re-check because of forgetfulness ADHD person that follows the whole ‘out of sight out of mind’ thing, I just quickly forget what I have in there if I can’t see it.

    The re-check is to see if any of it looks better now. My mood shifts or I get more hungry and less picky.

    Haha, you’re definitely not alone in this! It’s like the fridge has this weird, magical pull even when you know there’s nothing new, you’ll open it again, just in case something’s changed. It’s almost like a habit or a reflex, like our brains just like checking for something “new” or “different,” even if it’s not there.

    Either you are hungry..
    Or you have an eating disorder.

    I still haven’t figured out where the light goes off
