Yes actually you can.More severe cases of this addiction are called "trance eating." Meaning the person who is addicted to food,may not realize how much they eat at all while awake,and somtimes even durring sleep get up unknowingly and prepare and eat large amounts of food,while as not remembering anything of this occurance in the morning.As far as candy,yes you can be addicted even with limatations just to candy.Trance eaters eat food,and of the sort to the point that they can not take in any more and then beyond that point at times.This can ruin ones life.There have been recent shows about addictions,in particular this one on Tyra,and Oprah.If you wish to learn more on this toppic,you can search trance eatting on the web.I hope I gave you some insight on addictions to food.

Yes. Carbs and sweets make the body release insulin, and then seratonin for a "stop eating" signal. Addicts don't get the signal, so continue to get the cravings.

Yes. In a nutshell, if you are a sugar-sensitive person then you may be eating the candy to enhance your mood due to your low serotonin levels which can result in anxiety, impulsivity, anger issues, depression, etc. To read this article: http://www.winltdusa.com/about/infocenter/healthnews/articles/sugar.htm

Yes, white sugar is a drug and is very addictive. By the way, sugar arrests your immune system every time you eat it as well.
I know, I'm addicted, and I have researched it.
