Example: I don't eat chocolate frequently; however, I sometimes have it during special occasions like birthdays or when a colleague is feeling down, as I like to offer support. Usually, I don't buy chocolate for myself.

✓ I think chocolate is a comfort food. Many people, including me of course, feel that while consuming chocolate, we have a stable heart rate and then we feel really calm and relaxed inside.

✓ But if it's some adult who can have self-control and take it appropriately, then sure.
