To fill the void and pass the time away maybe. And they think it might give them some satisfaction but then it turns out to be disappointing. That's what I tihnk anyway.

It's a passtime and fills an unpleasant happening with something good. What can be better at those times than eating your favorite food(s)? This is the eater's logic.

Because a bored person is looking for stimulus, and the act of putting something in your mouth and chewing is a type of stimulus.

The act of eating reduces anxiety. It may be better to do a little excercise instead.

First of all it's "bored" secondly, your friend is an emotional eater. Encourage her to eat healthier foods.

It's called "oral gratification." Sounds like a Freudian term.
