Chocolate or sweets?

[MuddyPuddlesAndPrettyBubbles]

MIL sent the DC a basket of sweets for Easter. DS is in his element. DD is like me and really doesn't like sweets that much, she would much prefer chocolate eggs. So, sweets or chocolate? 'I would never let processed sugar pass my lips' types may wish to leave this thread

Both

Chocolate. Especially dark chocolate, or chocolate orange. So many sticky sweets just smell horrible to me

I should have done this as an AIBU with a poll.

I just had a chunk of my inch-thick Hotel Chocolat Easter egg, dipped into tea to make the outside melty. Bloody gorgeous. Bloody foam bananas have nothing on this. (DH loves foam bananas but is also not above stealing my Easter eggs. Git.)

Chocolate. Sugar without fat is just wasted calories.

Love both, but if forced to choose it would probably be chocolate.

Chocolate 😊

Been eating rations from my stock cupboard, and would just kill for a huge butter iced cupcake. I am literally drooling at the thought.

It’s between chocolate and cake for me, sweets don’t even get a look in.

Chocolate, apart from 1st trimester of pregnancy when chocolate made me feel sick but Haribo were the bomb.

Sweets, definitely, in particular Waitrose or m&s toffees

Chocolate! There are very few sweets I like.

Chocolate, sweets are weirdly too sweet and sugary

Chocolate, always. There are no sweets that I couldn't live without.

Sweets. Haribos and chews

Sweets. I had to learn to like chocolate.

Chocolate every time, I'm not a fan of sweets at all. Sadly most chocolate in Canada is crap, but I've recently found a place that imports Tony's which has made me extremely happy. It's by far my favourite chocolate brand.

Chocolate toffees!

Vet- that has made me sad, about Canadian chocolate. Canada does lots of things right, how did they get chocolate wrong? Particularly when many of them are from British and French heritage, both of whom have fantastic chocolate (or at least did in the past).

KrakowDawn there isn't really any widely-available 'Canadian' chocolate, it's all American stuff (like Hershey's which tastes like vomit). You can get Lindt bars and some Cadbury's and Nestlé stuff in most supermarkets, as well as Maltesers, M&Ms etc. but most of it is American stuff and it's nasty.

On the plus side though, ice cream here is a big thing and there are amazing independent ice cream stores all over 😍
