Confungry
A combination of the words “confused” and “hungry”. Often used to describe the period of time before dinner where you aren’t quite sure what you want to eat, but you are hungry. It can sometimes be a very frustrating situation if you are unable to figure out what you are hungry for.
Man, I don’t know what to eat. I’m so confungry!
