Do you agree that there is such thing as "sweet addiction". And if there is, are you addicted? I know I am, I'm crazy for sweets. At any form. Am I crazy because of that. When I'm at the shop, and I have money to spend on anything my heart desires (that's mostly at little shop at my school), I go nuts and I spend it all on something sweet. Do you have that urge sometimes, or is it just (crazy) me? [img:5f1cef464b]http://facultyfiles.deanza.edu/images/coltrindorothy/CANDY1.jpg[/img:5f1cef464b]

No, it's not just you. Actually, since being pregnant, my diet has been much healthier, but I used to be addicted to sweets BIG TIME. I mean, really. Just ask Buzzfloyd. I'd walk out late at night and count out my pennies (literally) to get my chocolate fix, and I was incapable of having any in the house without eating it. I think was quite extreme, but at least it wasn't heroin!
I totaly feel your pain if I get any cash spare thats not gone on books its straight to "sweets from heaven" the greatest sweet shop on earth... well technically..... Just ignore the name for now till I can think of something to add..
but I mean there "sweet" little faces. ok I'll stop now!! Im suffering from sleep deprivation at the moment
Me too, Koshu, I've been up way too long and I am thinking about having a chocolate bar right now( maybe because there was a Ghirardelli commercial on just a minute ago, mmm Ghirardelli is almost as good as Lindt).
I love both sweets and chocolate. The picture of the dolly mixture just makes me want to go out and buy some. I loved being pregnant because I could eat like a cow and eat all the chocolate and not feel guilty. If you are addicted, look away now. Ohh...Dolly Mixture, Rasberry Ruffles, Strawberry Sherberts, Pinapple Cubes, Cola Cubes, mmmmm I could go on.
What I really hated was the recent fashion for sweety jewelry etc. It all looked so edible! I kept being tempted to go up to people in the street and eat their earrings/handbag or whatever. Could have been embarrassing. Luckily I managed to curb myself.
knowing me I would of attacked them without any second thought. Its to do with my built in "track and aquire" sweetie/chocolate device :lol:

Oooooooouh sarge, I hate you !!!! Dunno what's worse, remembering all those sweets or remembering I'm hundreds of miles from the nearest english sweet shop ! The french just don't have the same sweet culture...
I said I don't eat sweets, which I try to avoid cos they give me a dirty headache and make my teeth hurt... But I've heard others who say they're addicted, I just get the come down before I get the suger high...
This is my third day in a row without chocolate... And I want to make it to Holy Evening (sp?)... I barely managed to take my mind of them... And then came you... You evil, evil, evil people.... Must... stay.... strong...
I don't like chocolate very much, it makes my teeth hurt. I'm sure my sweet tooth fell out. I've got a savory tooth instead. I'd rather get a box of ... cheeses, or sausages, or little garlic things, or sushi, than a box of chocolates. GARLIC!! I love garlic, and all things savory. Except olives. When I do overindulge in sweety delights, i get spots. So it's probably a good thing I don't really like them.

I don't mind the odd sweet here or there, but I can never eat more than a few at a time and I don't crave them. I'm the same with chocolate, although I'm more able to eat large amounts at one sitting. But I don't get cravings. I once shocked a friend when I said that sometimes I prefer to eat a piece of fruit than a bar of chocolate. Being on the "big-boned" side, he couldn't understand why someone would rather have a plum or an apple instead of a mars bar or a twirl. I [i:3f0e4a19f6]always[/i:3f0e4a19f6] have fruit in my room, sometimes some kind of savoury thing, but I rarely have chocolate/sweets. I only really eat chocolate when on the go, a quick snack or if someone brings something into work
I also prefer fruit to chocolate to be honest. I have a few pieces of fruit every day, but I rarely eat chocolate. I do eat a packet of liquorice every week, though. But black gold is irresistible!
I've kicked the chocolate habit. (Almost..) Although I do indulge in liquorice whenever I can get my hands on it. (Not too often, unfortunately) I do notice that I like salty things more and more. I guess it's my age catching up on me. I try to always have fruit available to eat instead of candy.
I as a rule don't eat chocolate, but its a bit difficult when one's friends pile you up with christmas chocolate and demand that you eat it. Its tasty and everything, but I can live without it. So can my waistline. Dried fruit on the other hand... I can eat a whole packet of dried mango in one sitting. I live on the stuff. Boiled lollies are also nice, as long as they are the traditional kind. I never get to eat liquorice as my Dad tends to gobble it all up before anyone else is aware it is in the house.
The photo of "dolly mixture" reminded me of an art exhibit I saw in college. An artist from Duluth had done these huge photorealistic paintings of gummy bears and other candy. She had a very elegant 6foot square painting of Jordan almonds in a silver dish as seen from directly overhead. It was gorgeous. I had never seen a gummybear in person back then (1980 or so) now they are widely available. I like gummy sharks better then bears.

News flash: I stopped to be so addicted (at least I hope). Why? Because, when I read what you all wrote, I realised that I'm, actually, not that much addicted (as I thought before). Now, I'll "give you a treat". http://accad.osu.edu/~ychen/Spain/Barcelona/Candies.jpg Oh, and I like fruits, too! http://strawberry.ifas.ufl.edu/breeding/Sweet Charlie pouring quart 3.jpg

Once, when I was very small, I informed my mother that grapes were [i:e9dd6b8cdb]even nicer[/i:e9dd6b8cdb] than sweets. The following week (I was allowed sweets once a week) she offered me grapes instead of sweets, reminding me of what I'd said, and I was very, very upset. Cruel mother. Since then I have always been very careful about what rash statements I make, as the consequences can be severe.
