It's a fact now that we do feel hungrier when it is raining. But what kind of foods do you crave for? For me it's instant noodle soup extra hot with chili pepper! Or porridge with hard boiled egg. Man, just thinking about it is making me hungry even if it's not raining at the moment! What about you guys? And please state where you are from. I'm from Philippines.

Hi there! I am also a Filipina, and im a lover of rain. Many people didn't love the feeling when its raining, but im an opposite of them. I love the feeling of cold and serenity that only rain could give. When its raining, its so nice to sleep, read, and especially eat. I could eat almost anything and almost all the food taste better when its raining but i crave for bagoong (shrimp paste), talong (eggplant) and fried fish with hot rice. I also love sinigang or nilaga and champorado with milk...

I'm from the Philippines and when it is raining I really crave for a "tsamporado" and "pritong tuyo". It is really a good combination. I really miss that two.

That would be chinese rice congee, peppered and served hot with fried tofu and pork rinds. Oooh, I'm craving for one right now coz it's raining outside. :) But if I can't have one, I'd settle for a cup of hot chocolate. And I'm from the Philippines too, kababayan. :)

I love to eat popcorn when its raining because its relaxing and more soothing to hear the rain tap on your window. Its kinda ironic because I dont like eating popcorn when I watch movies. Its a noisy distraction to me because people take it to the extreme. Lol

Yeah it is ironic. Not just ironic, it's weird! lol. I can imagine you watching the rain as if you are watching an interesting movie. =)

I'm a Filipina, and for me coffee/hot choco and soups are the best when it's chilly outside. And you got it a hot rice porridge is also perfect in this kind of weather. :)

A hot cup of chocolate with churros (fried flour and salt e water with cnae sugar on top)ot pumpkin dumplings (also with cane sugar) would be my rainy day choices. I donĀ“t do them all the time because they are terribly fattening. Have a good day!

Here in my country Argentine, the rainy days do a few fried cakes to themselves, it is something very common that the grandmothers or the mothers put to cook this food, but it is mas for the evening, to accompany with the mate or the snack, is not a food of half a day.

I don't really crave food when its raining but maybe sometimes and most of the time I crave for yakisoba noodles or ramen which is just real good when its raining specially on winter. But what I crave every day are junk food

Hi, damned_dle. I love to eat, a delicious salad when it is raining. Especially, if it is hot outside. I also think that some steamed vegetables is very delicious too.
