No one wants to hear it, I suspect, but eating very low carb is how this is done.
No sugar and no grains for one month and the cravings are gone. You can easily go 48 hours on water alone, if you need or want to.
What nearly everyone calls hunger is actually cravings for carbs. True hunger is painful and consumes every thought. Likely no one you’ve ever met has been truly hungry.
You probably think no one wants to hear it when they disagree, but more likely what works for you doesn’t work for everyone. As the person replying to you exemplified. There isn’t a one trick for everyone in these kinda of things, and anyone who claims there is is either ignorant or scamming.
Easy way to prove it; show us the peer reviewed scientific studies. There’s been times when almost everyone has been wrong, and what proved it was the scientific method.
Our findings clearly demonstrate that intense sweetness can surpass cocaine reward, even in drug-sensitized and -addicted individuals. We speculate that the addictive potential of intense sweetness results from an inborn hypersensitivity to sweet tastants. In most mammals, including rats and humans, sweet receptors evolved in ancestral environments poor in sugars and are thus not adapted to high concentrations of sweet tastants. The supranormal stimulation of these receptors by sugar-rich diets, such as those now widely available in modern societies, would generate a supranormal reward signal in the brain, with the potential to override self-control mechanisms and thus to lead to addiction.
I don’t think there is a single fix for this. My diet is pretty carb heavy and I forget meals all the time. You just get focused on something and it’s…why am I lightheaded?…oh yeah. Food in the last 12 hours might have been nice.
Background…it’s not just me but our genetics are bonkers. There are four other people in my family 35-75 years old and 5.5-6ft tall. Not a single one of us is over 130 pounds. We all struggle to gain weight. Doesn’t matter what we eat…good food or absolute garbage. Absolute garbage has other consequences…like also feeling like garbage but weight gain isn’t one of them. Cravings for anything are rare…drove my college roommate nuts that I could have candy around for like 6+ months.

Or most people haven’t tried it and are incredulous that it works and can’t imagine life without the food noise and cravings

I’m not familiar with much research on food noise as a topic by itself.
However you may find this paper on the power of sugar addiction in rats Intense Sweetness Surpasses Cocaine Reward - 2007
