I was a buyer for a candy manufacturer. You get sick and tired of candy damned fast. I was a sweet tooth when I started there. By the time I left I could not stand sweets. I will still occasionally eat good chocolate, but 30 years later I am still over candy.
I buy a big dark chocolate bar at Lidl once a week. It takes me a week to get through it, a little square or two per day.
(It wasn’t like that when I was a kid :-)
