A short advice video by Jim Katsoulis explaining that people often eat out of boredom because culture treats food as entertainment. He advises stopping boredom eating by engaging in more interesting, non-food-related activities — specifically recommending taking up hobbies.

How to stop eating when you're bored. And the solution is surprisingly simple. But before I tell you what it is, it's important to understand that we have been conditioned in this culture to think of food as entertainment, so that when we're bored, eating is one of the easiest things we can do to entertain ourselves. So the solution to stop eating when you're bored is to do more interesting things. This is why I always recommend for people to start doing hobbies, things that are interesting to them that have nothing to do with food.
