Some foods can maintain the feeling of fullness for longer than others. These foods often have certain characteristics that offset hunger.  Eating foods that satisfy hunger can help control calorie consumption. For example, eating a meal that contains filling foods is likely to reduce portion size and snacking between meals. This can aid weight management by cutting the overall calories a person consumes in a day.
