Popular Dream Symbols

Eating is associated with pleasure, satisfaction, and nourishment. While eating a specific food in a dream could relate to desire to consume that fare, on a deeper level, it could symbolize an emotional hunger. Certain foods can even represent sensual yearnings for tweens experiencing puberty and adolescents. Not surprisingly, kids often dream of eating sweets. However, if a child dreams of spitting out a food, not only does that reflect a dislike, but on a more significant level, the action could indicate that the child doesn't want to take in something that could affect him.
