Fascinating! Thanks for posting this.

Dream list: make it so I can press a button to inhibit hunger for 20-60m. Would be handy for when I know I’ll be eating soon but am annoyingly hungry anyway.

Nicotine happens to do just that, it suppresses the appetite for some time. Not the most harmless appetite suppressant though.
