I don't think of it this way. Instead consider that the modern abundance of every type of food is very different from the environment in which our bodies evolved. Our natural/hard-wired cravings are actually harmful in the modern environment. It's less about being hungry and more about being satisfied with considerably less. Anecdotally I can tell you I absolutely feel better when I eat less than when I eat to satisfy whatever craving I might have.
