What’s your favorite candy?

A seemingly very simple question but in my case it could easily be ‘explain nuclear physics’. I love ALL things chocolate or indeed sugar related. Choose your favourite child would be another angle to it.

I’ve had a sweet tooth all my life and discovered as you got older it starts catching up with you. Not just the obvious things like dentists being cross and gaining weight. Unseen aspects that unless you get a blood test remain undiagnosed such as high cholesterol and blood pressure also come into play.

So more recently I’ve been trying very hard to reign my candy passion in. At least manufacturers seem to have lent a helping hand by making the bars smaller while keeping the price the same!
