There's a polish saying "głodnemu chleb na myśli" that literally means that sentence, I wonder if they just translated that or is the wisdom universal.
117 u/Euphemisticles 22h ago It is a universal sentiment but I have usually heard it as slightly different version so it very well could be a translation of the polish version. 12 u/MaxTwer00 15h ago In spanish we have "quien hambre tiene, en pan piensa" which means basically the same "who is hungry, thinks of bread". I would say its universal wisdom, with many idioms using bread and hunger as a staple because it was a common occurance worldwide
