× I am not really like eating chocolate because it's too sweet to me.
✓ I do not really like eating chocolate because it's too sweet for me.
The preposition 'to' is incorrectly used after 'sweet'. The correct preposition to express personal taste is 'for'. Also, 'am not really like' is incorrect; the correct form is 'do not really like' because 'like' is a verb, not an adjective.
× Chocolate has a lot of soy and it's not healthy and good for my skin, my weight, my body and my health.
✓ Chocolate has a lot of soy, and it's not healthy or good for my skin, my weight, my body, and my health.
The sentence needs a comma before 'and' to separate clauses. Also, 'healthy and good' should be connected with 'or' to express alternatives. The list items are correct in plural form.
× my husband usually give me a chocolate gift in Valentine.
✓ My husband usually gives me a chocolate gift on Valentine's Day.
The verb 'give' should be in the third person singular form 'gives' to agree with the singular subject 'my husband'. Also, 'in Valentine' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'on' and the phrase is 'Valentine's Day'.
× Yes, when I was a child I really like chocolate and like uh, other children, I really love everything sweet like chocolate and I usually eat chocolate in the holiday and whenever I eat I feel really happy.
✓ Yes, when I was a child, I really liked chocolate and, like other children, I really loved everything sweet like chocolate. I usually ate chocolate during the holidays, and whenever I ate it, I felt really happy.
The sentence mixes past and present tense incorrectly. Since the time frame is in the past ('when I was a child'), verbs should be in the past tense: 'liked', 'loved', 'ate', 'felt'. Also, 'in the holiday' should be 'during the holidays'.
× I often eat chocolate in some days special like Valentine's Day because my husband usually give me a chocolate gift in Valentine.
✓ I often eat chocolate on special days like Valentine's Day because my husband usually gives me a chocolate gift on Valentine's Day.
The preposition 'in' is incorrectly used with 'some days special' and 'Valentine'. The correct preposition is 'on' for specific days. Also, 'some days special' should be 'special days'. The verb 'give' should be 'gives' for third person singular.
× I think chocolate is popular around the world because people around the world believe that chocolatey love icon and love language, especially when Valentine's Day.
✓ I think chocolate is popular around the world because people believe that chocolate is a love icon and a love language, especially on Valentine's Day.
The phrase 'chocolatey love icon and love language' is ungrammatical and unclear. It should be 'chocolate is a love icon and a love language'. Also, 'when Valentine's Day' should be 'on Valentine's Day'.
× Now today Valentine's is truly popular in my country Vietnam and it's one of the reason why chocolate is.
✓ Nowadays, Valentine's Day is truly popular in my country, Vietnam, and it's one of the reasons why chocolate is popular.
'Now today' is redundant; 'Nowadays' is better. 'One of the reason' should be 'one of the reasons' (plural). The sentence is incomplete; 'why chocolate is' should be 'why chocolate is popular'. Commas are needed around 'Vietnam' as an appositive.
× My favorite flavor of chocolates is like chocolates without sugar.
✓ My favorite flavor of chocolate is chocolate without sugar.
'Flavor' is singular, so 'chocolates' should be singular 'chocolate'. Also, 'is like chocolates' is awkward; better to say 'is chocolate without sugar'.
× With some people, black chocolate is too difficult to eat, but for me it's the healthy intelligent.
✓ For some people, dark chocolate is too bitter to eat, but for me, it's healthy and good for me.
'Black chocolate' is better expressed as 'dark chocolate'. 'Difficult to eat' is awkward; 'bitter' is more appropriate. 'Healthy intelligent' is incorrect; it should be 'healthy and good for me' or similar.
× I can use black chocolate to cook for my healthy food.
✓ I can use dark chocolate to cook healthy food.
'Cook for my healthy food' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'cook healthy food' or 'use dark chocolate in cooking healthy food'.
× Yes, I think it's good to use chocolate as gift to other especially in Valentine's Day because chocolates is love icon and love language.
✓ Yes, I think it's good to use chocolate as a gift for others, especially on Valentine's Day, because chocolate is a love icon and a love language.
'As gift' should be 'as a gift'. 'To other' should be 'for others'. 'Chocolates is' should be 'chocolate is'. Articles 'a' are needed before 'love icon' and 'love language'. Preposition 'in' should be 'on' for days.
