Again, "explaining" hunger is not the main focus here. For the millionth time. But truth be told, I don't think you can explain it without recourse to panpsychism because dead particles, by definition, won't be self-aware hence will not feel hunger.
You made it pretty crucial when you said a particular viewpoint couldn't explain it and that was why that viewpoint was wrong or implausible. Turns out that viewpoint can explain it and you cant. Not only can you not explain hunger, you don't even attempt to. Not only can you not explain hunger, and don't attempt to, you can't even differentiate between a world of your non explanation and others peoples world of explanation.
So what should that mean...according to you?
