Is It Being Childish Or Elderly?

More days than not I have this craving and I always see it as something a child would do or like, but Tony says its not child like its being an old person.
The problem is that after dinner I want something sweet, cake, pie... candy bar. anything!
I had a Hersey`s chocolate bar in my cart at the grocery store but put it back at the last minute, so no candy.
So I did what I do best, I am baking from scratch, made a peach cobbler. Yes at 9:30 pm its in the oven and when its done I will scoop a serving out while steaming hot.
What do you think? Child like wanting dessert or like an elderly person?

I think people wanting sweets is normal. It is called a sweet tooth haha even if someone has no teeth it is still a sweet tooth. I don't think it is childish since it is just something that tastes good!

Generally people like sweets but because of awareness on various diseases now a days. People now become more wiser in choosing food what to eat.

Sometimes you have to forget about it and have a candy bar.

I think most people want something after a meal even if it is just a mint or a piece of gum. I don't eat dessert every day, but to me, that is the best part of a meal most of the time!

It is normal I think. But be sure to take it easy on sugar intake.

Oh no! You too! If it's old age, I'm going to embrace it! Pass the chocolate and the cheesecake, please. Apple pie a la mode, on the side. Thank you.

I think there is that window when more people tend not to eat sweets because of diets, so that is where the child like comes in , they do not care and once again when they are old, don`t care.
