There are not many side effects of quitting other than some weight gain, and feeling cranky. There is not much of an association of particular foods with stopping smoking. There are none that make it easier, harder nor more complicated. Smokers who quit tend to increase eating due to compensating for not having the cigarettes to keep their hands occupied and.. food tastes a bit more if you are not smoking.
