Eating in dreams generally symbolises satisfying the dreamer’s needs, or “hungers.” This can refer to any area of need such as emotional, mental or sexual, depending on the context of the dream.

Dreams about food can similarly symbolise spiritual nourishment, food for thought or food for the mind. Information and experiences can be digested, thus representing food for growth of the individual. In general, food represents something the dreamer takes into themselves, such as qualities of another person, social or sexual pleasure, the experience of a relationship or knowledge that will affect actions.

Analysis of Dreams About Eating

Frequent dreams about eating suggest the dreamer may have a great hunger for something. They can also reflect a compensation for dieting, or an inner conflict over eating. To dream of not eating could point to a conflict with the body and its needs, an avoidance of growing or change or an attempt to be isolated from others.
