× I eat the chocolate 3 or 4 times a week as a dessert after my main meal.
✓ I eat chocolate 3 or 4 times a week as a dessert after my main meal.
The use of 'the' before 'chocolate' is incorrect here because we are talking about chocolate in general, not a specific chocolate. Removing 'the' makes the sentence grammatically correct.
× It gives me a pleasure.
✓ It gives me pleasure.
The phrase 'give me a pleasure' is incorrect because 'pleasure' is an uncountable noun here. We do not use 'a' with uncountable nouns. The correct phrase is 'gives me pleasure'.
× I have a chocolate 3 or 4 times a week after my main meal as a dessert, or even when I am in a mood for a snack, I usually have a chocolate.
✓ I have chocolate 3 or 4 times a week after my main meal as a dessert, or even when I am in the mood for a snack, I usually have chocolate.
The use of 'a' before 'chocolate' is incorrect when referring to chocolate in general. Also, the phrase 'in a mood' should be 'in the mood' as it is a fixed expression.
× So when I was young I rarely eat a chocolate as a sweet.
✓ So when I was young I rarely ate chocolate as a sweet.
The sentence refers to a past time ('when I was young'), so the verb should be in the past tense 'ate' instead of 'eat'. Also, 'a chocolate' should be 'chocolate' as it is uncountable here.
× I believe most of the people like it's sweet flavor and the Milky taste, especially among young children.
✓ I believe most people like its sweet flavour and the milky taste, especially among young children.
The pronoun 'it's' is a contraction of 'it is' which is incorrect here. The possessive pronoun 'its' should be used to indicate possession. Also, 'most of the people' is better as 'most people' in this context. 'Milky' should not be capitalised.
× It's really quite popular and I even elders like to have a chocolate rather than uh, concerning about their health matters.
✓ It's really quite popular and even elders like to have chocolate rather than, uh, be concerned about their health matters.
The phrase 'I even elders' is incorrect; 'even elders' is correct. Also, 'concerning about' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'be concerned about'. 'A chocolate' should be 'chocolate' as it is uncountable here.
× I do not have a fixed preference, but I enjoy eating milk chocolate in which has some nuts or uh inside it.
✓ I do not have a fixed preference, but I enjoy eating milk chocolate which has some nuts inside it.
The phrase 'in which has some nuts or uh inside it' is awkward and incorrect. 'Which has some nuts inside it' is the correct relative clause. Also, 'or uh' is unnecessary and should be removed.
× It gives a crunchy flavor apart from the Milky taste and I really enjoy having those varieties.
✓ It gives a crunchy flavour apart from the milky taste and I really enjoy having those varieties.
'Milky' should not be capitalised. The rest of the sentence is correct.
× For example, young kids will definitely enjoy a chocolate gift.
✓ For example, young kids will definitely enjoy a chocolate gift.
This sentence is correct as 'a chocolate gift' refers to a specific gift, so 'a' is appropriate.
× However, I believe for elders it's not much appropriate as they might have some health concerns.
✓ However, I believe for elders it's not very appropriate as they might have some health concerns.
The phrase 'not much appropriate' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'not very appropriate' to express degree.
