I love sweets! I have a sweet tooth. In fact, I love desserts. But when a cake or ice cream is not available, I opt to eat chocolates. I read somewhere that chocolates contain phenylethylamine, the same chemical that our brain produce when we fall inlove. So eating chocolates gives you almost the same feeling when you're inlove. I'd say that's an exaggeration and I don't know if it's true. But when I eat chocolates I'm happy. Candies on the other are a quick fix too. I'm not so much into hard candies. But I'd grab a chocolate flavored one if I have a choice.

Chocolates!
I make sure I have a dose at least once a week :) If only we can eat it everyday. I can't stock a lot at home because I can't stop once I start especially if I know I still have some. It's just torture 
.
I only have candies when I have cough because it helps soothe the itchiness especially the menthol flavor.

Yuck! Neither please. I might put a sign up outside our house- 'Chocolate free Home'.
I have a savoury tooth, so none of this suits me. My partner has a gluten allergy, and whilst most choccies do not contain gluten, they are produced using machinery that also produces items that do contain gluten, so we have to read labels very carefully.
I don't like eating hard candies either. I love Jolly Rancher candies, but I like to eat them soft and not hard.

For some people chocolates are comfort food. When a child cries you often give them chocolates and candies and they will stop crying. A person who just had a trauma are given hot cocoa. I guess it has something to do with the psche? I also love chocolates but I don't eat all the time. My favorite is See's Chocolate and Cadbury Fruits and Nuts and all chocolates with nuts.

Chocolates of course! I just love chocolates specially those with nuts and almonds. Like you, I also have a sweet tooth. It is one of my favorite comfort food. Back in college after an exam, I usually buy myself some chocolates to reward myself. And usually when I am hungry, I eat chocolates. The cocoa butter in chocolate has stearic acid which can help slow digestion and make the stomach stay full longer.
