I dunno... there are plenty of times I feel hunger and am neither preparing to eat, nor do I prepare to eat because I'm hungry. Other times, I might find myself eating out of social obligation, idle boredom, habit. I'm not claiming that hunger and eating are unrelated, but I find it a bit much to collapse one into the other.
Do grazing animals (maybe baleen whales in the extreme?) eat because they are hungry? I've had dogs who appear to be hungry all the time, or at least anytime they are in the presence of food, or a human who might respond to their begging by getting them some food.
