I don't think I'm addicted to candies, the only problem is, when I buy a bag of candies, I start eating the candies immediately and very fast (I empty the bag in an hour or so). I can't just keep them for a few days without eating them. Today I bought 1 bag of peppermint en 2 bags with licorice and they're all 3 empty now already! I now have a terrible stomach-ache! :( This wasn't smart of me :o
 
It takes you an hour to eat a bag? I could down one in fifteen minutes!

I eat a bag of sour gummy worms in 15 minutes! :D
 
I love the bulk food store.

Skittles, Starburst or anything sour coated (cherry blasters for example).

I once knew I had a big assignment due on monday when iw as in college so on friday night i bought a pound of skittles to eat while i wrote code - I ate them all the first evening and was sick the next morning.

Yes! Mmmmmmmmm! :)
 
Never eat a lot of Skittles at once. :ack: :cringe: :vomit:
 
Nerds! ( No not you Red Wolf, I'm referring to one of my favorite candies, which I am eating right now) I also like Sour Patch Kids with movies, but they make my fillings hurt.

I have to agree with you - nerds are great. My only issue with them is that they're hard to eat and do something else at the same time (like play on the computer) because they're so small and muck up your hands.

Candies like sour blasters or star burst can be eaten mess free.
 
I feel your pain. I have been known to eat up to 3/4 of a pound (over 330 grams) of chocolate candy in one sitting. When I was a messenger I used to buy those big 5oz. candy bars almost everyday (after my usual pizza lunch). Ughhh.

Now at 23 I'm just finally starting to get over all the intestinal problems from my poor eating habits (and stress), after about 2 years of various symptoms.

Sugar addiction is no joke. It effects your brain at least as much as nicoteen (although not as much as alcohol in the short term).

One way I've found that helps with the candy bar problem is sometime buy yourself (or have someone else buy for you :)) some fancy expensive chocolate bars (Lindt is one of the best, Godiva and Ghirardelli are also both pretty good). Once you've had one of those you won't want to go back to Nestle (and especially not Hershey). At least for a few days. ;)
 
I am kinda addicted to chocolate.

But I try to keep the amount small, since I have a fear of gaining weight (after I cut down on exercise because of an injury). Sugar is not exactly healthy for people who do not exercise..
 
The original Starbursts, definitely Starbursts.
 
I once ate a 5 lb bag of peanut m&m's while watching a movie. Man they were good....didn't have another peanut m&m for about a year. :lol:
 
Ciggarettes and alcohol are my addictions. On those rare occassions when I get sweets they don't last long.
 
Oh, yeah.

My mother tells me that I learned to say chocolate before I learned to say daddy

Recently, I have developed quite a liking for snickers bars...

Regards :).
