I very much doubt that most people in the western world who complain about being „hungy“ have ever experienced actually being hungry.
If you don't eat for about day (or longer), the short-term glucose storage will be depleted, ketosis starts and you'll actually feel hungry - though it usually fades once the body adapts to breaking down fat and proteins.
Having an empty, possibly even grumbling stomach or feeling appetite/ craving for sugar isn't hunger. I can recommend trying out to fast for a couple of days in order to experience the difference. I've kinda intuitively shifted to intermittent fasting afterwards and usually don't have any urge to eat food until after noon.
