Couple that with working from home, home-schooling children, and dealing with a worldwide pandemic and you have a perfect storm for stress eating. As a result, people are reporting eating more of their favorite comfort foods \u2013 which are typically high in sugar, salt and calories. While we can\u2019t change the stress, K-State Research and Extension nutrition specialist Sandy Procter says we can control what we eat.
