Dinner is a commitment. You make dinner to eat dinner.
Evening snacking is optional and periodic. You can have few snacks. You can have many snacks. You can snack here or there. You can snack anywhere. You can snack reading a book. You can snack in a nook.
If I make dinner… I am eating dinner. If I grab snacks, I might have a few laying in bed after ripping a joint and I can stop at any time. Just a few more chips. I’m good.
The joke is that at the time of shopping we decide to be strong and be hungry, but when the time comes to test that determination, we don’t have the strength of our past well-wed self.
I understand that I’m not the target audience of this meme, but I’m confused. Isn’t it an option to simply eat dinner?
Alternatively… to simply be hungry for an hour or three?
I don’t snack at all. I only put food in my face two or three times a day, sometimes 4 if I’m working hard. Guess who isn’t fat.
Dinner is not snacking.

Also snacks imply something besides dinner.
I’m still confused. I thought the Snack situation was,
You’re hungry,
The chips are ready to eat,
You eat the chips.
So if there are no chips, you have to make something to eat instead, which becomes de facto Dinner. So the No Snack situation is
2a. There is no food ready to eat,
2b. You make food to eat,
I might be off base here, but I don’t snack, and I actually don’t understand.
