Answers about Candy

Although it may be better to chew a piece of sugar-free gum, you still can eat a candy bar. There are many factors to consider when determining which candy bar has the most sugar in it because fun-size (tiny) candy bar would clearly have less sugar in it than a regular full size candy bar or even those jumbo candy bars. Most of the average size candy bars have a lot of sugar in them.

The ones that have the most sugar in them would be:

Junior Mints (32 grams of sugar)

M&M's Milk Chocolate (31 grams of sugar)

Skittles (47 grams of sugar)

Hershey's Milk Chocolate (31 grams of sugar)

Milky Way (35 grams of sugar)

3 Musketeer's (40 grams of sugar)

Snickers (30 grams of sugar)

When looking out for the amount of sugar in food, you should also consider trying to avoiding trans fat, watching calories, and limiting saturated fat. Chewy fruit candy such as starbursts and skittles typically contain more sugar than candy bars do.

Can you get diabetes by eating a lot of candy?

Asked by Anonymous

AnswerIf you eat a lot of sugar, you may become obese, which can lead to type 2 Diabetes.

Type one occurs when the immune system "attacks" the Insulin-producing beta cells located in the pancreas. Which means your body can no longer produce insulin for itself, in that case, you would need to take insulin injections for the rest of your life. It is unrelated to eating.

AnswerYou can eat your way into diabetes by eating these types of food to the extent that you are overweight, have high cholesteral, triglycerides and such. There are also other risk factors, but excess weight and lack of exercise increase your risk. AnswerNo. One cannot obtain diabetes by consuming too much sugar.

By consuming a lot of sugar, one may become obese. Obesity is a risk factor for diabetes.

AnswerWe do not completely understand why some people get diabetes and others don't. Genetics plays a role (family history) as does being over weight and getting too little exercise. It is possible that what you eat is also important with eating a lot of breads, pastas and sweets being more likely to cause diabetes than over-eating meats and fats. AnswerOnly Type 2 diabetes can be caused by the food you eat. Type 2 can be caused by poor diet, poor health and lack of exercise.

Type 1 however cannot be caused by diet. The causes of Type 1 are being researched but it definitely doesn't have anything to do with diet. Diet affects the overall well being of the sufferer but it isn't a cause.

Is take this lollipop real?

Asked by Anonymous

Yes, some companies do sell lollipops and other candies that have real insects in them. Not all of these "bug candies" contain real insects, but many do.

For example, check out the website for Hotlix Candy (see the Related Link below). They sell "insect candy" that contains real insects (except for the butterfly candy, which contains only butterfly larvae and flowers that are cut to look like wings).

How did the candy bar whatchamacallit get its name?

Asked by Anonymous

I named the Whatchamacallit candy bar, but unfortunately I can not prove that… but here is my story. I was working a store that sold Hershey's products. One day the sales person came in and off the cuff asked me if I were to name a candy bar, what would I call it. I had just been joking with a customer about going into a hardware store and asking for a "Whatchamacallit" because I could not remember its name - so I told him a "Whatchamacallit" and gave my reasons. A while later he came in and told me they were test marketing my candy bar in a certain area and if it did well they would market it. It was not long before he came in and presented me with a case of candy bars to which he proclaimed "Congratulations, here is your candy bar." I have contacted Hershey's with dates and places just to confirm my story - nothing more… but they wrote me back and said they had no idea of where the name came from. I always had figured it was a contest with the sales reps where they would submit a name and my rep just happened to like what I had said. This is my story - I so wish I could prove it… but I have no doubt that I was responsible for the name.
