Children cry when they're hungry because crying is an instinctive way to communicate a need and it's especially helpful when you don't have the verbal or any other skills to otherwise indicate it. So it makes perfect sense for a child to cry when they're hungry.

For an adult to cry when they're hungry that usually means there's something developmentally wrong with that person. So you probably shouldn't do it if you have enough cognizance and agency to choose between crying or doing literally anything else to acquire some food.
