Believe it or not, I haven't had candy in my life - no sweets, no lollies. It was just one of those things my family never had around
Wow. You're actually kind of fortunate because it isn't good for your health. Also, for me anyways, I can't have it around because it can be addictive.
Yes, and sugar is EVERYWHERE. You could call some  "food" candy, you know? It's how people prepare and treat their food.
