× And in general I like eating, uh, so I think that's, uh, chocolate is very tasty food.
✓ And in general, I like eating, so I think that chocolate is very tasty food.
The phrase 'that's, uh, chocolate' incorrectly uses 'that's' (that is) before 'chocolate'. It should be 'that chocolate' to correctly refer to chocolate as the subject. Removing 'is' after 'that' fixes the pronoun usage.
× I can say everyday because I consider chocolate very delicious food.
✓ I can say every day because I consider chocolate very delicious food.
The word 'everyday' is an adjective meaning 'commonplace', but here the adverbial phrase 'every day' (two words) is needed to indicate frequency.
× When I was a child, I. Eat chocolate very often.
✓ When I was a child, I ate chocolate very often.
The sentence refers to a past time ('when I was a child'), so the verb should be in the past tense 'ate' instead of present tense 'eat'. Also, the period after 'I' is incorrect and removed.
× That's why other people and also me enjoying enjoy eating chocolate.
✓ That's why other people and I also enjoy eating chocolate.
The pronoun 'me' is incorrect as the subject of the verb; it should be 'I'. Also, 'enjoying enjoy' is redundant; the correct verb form is 'enjoy'.
× I prefer to dark chocolate.
✓ I prefer dark chocolate.
The verb 'prefer' is directly followed by the object without 'to' when comparing preferences. 'Prefer to' is used before verbs, not nouns.
× I consider dark chocolate and tasteful.
✓ I consider dark chocolate tasteful.
The conjunction 'and' is incorrectly used here. The correct structure is 'consider [object] [adjective]', so 'and' should be removed.
