Candy at night

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and eat candy. I usually keep a small amount on my nightstand so that I can simply wake up and reach over for a piece. Sometimes it is a strawberry mentos, an airhead, a lemonhead, or some smarties. I can eat it and go right back to sleep! Sometimes if I do wake up and I don't have any I will get up and get some. It's like I am in a sleeping candy trance. Does anyone else do that?

I do if I feel like having some candy. I can eat candy anytime of the day. Sometimes I just wake up and want a piece of candy.

I do that alot, I have a jar of candies I keep right by my bed so that if I want some when I wake up in the middle of my sleep I can just reach over and they are right there, no need to get up out of bed. I also keep candy all over my house, so no matter what room I'm in, I can reach for a candy any time I crave one.

That's great! I have candy all over the place too. I always have some in my car and my purse too. I think I will have some now.

I used to be like that, but then I started having problems with my teeth. Watch out or you will end up with problems too. That sugar just sits there on your teeth all night while you sleep eating away at your enamel.

I do this from time to time... Maybe like a week straight I have to pop a Starburst during my tossing and turning. Like some people need a glass of water, I just need a fruit chew.

Wow me too. I also eat candy at night. As if my night is not complete without eating candy.

Your lucky that your stomach is that strong. If I wake up in the middle of the night hungry with an empty stomach and eat a piece of candy, it would make me sick within 5 minutes and I would start throwing up. I love candy if it's through the day and not on an empty stomach. I wish I had a strong stomach.
