Is there any harm in fruit tea? I have found a peach ginger tea I really like.
I prefer fruit teas is general.

I have tried loads of different ones and they are all fine with me. Be careful as if some are very fruity they may not go too well on an empty stomach. My favourites are Mandarin& Lychee and Orange, Mango& Cinnamon, both in the Twinings Exotic Selections box. They are yummy sweetened with a little honey. Lemon and Ginger is good too.

I desperately crave candy every day after lunch and giving up chocolate has been such a bummer!!!

I eat jellies and marshmallows all the time.
I love Haribo brand (do you have them in Canada?) and they do not bother me as long as I can stop eating them!!...try starmix (no 1 in the picture) they are my favourite
YUMMY!

Wow, I won't even ask how you posted a graphic.
I don't think we have those here but I have been eating gumdrops and swedish berries and they don't seem to bother me.

I don't know, but a lot of them are based on rosehip, which I used to drink a lot and I think it's a bit acidic, so some people might have a problem. I have stopped now and only drink peppermint and fennel, also camomile, which is quite sweet to taste, also lemon verbena is another mild, slightly sweet tea - they both go well with honey!
Re: chocolate, have you tried any of the chocolate flavoured milks? I find that some Alpro chocolate soya milk on Rice Krispies in the morning really satisfies my chocolate craving for the day and BHVV (Before Heather Van Vorous) I used to get through 2-3 bars a day average - often more - so that is really saying something.
Lots of people have mentioned marshmallows - I don't like them myself - for me it's chocolate or nothing!
Tell us if you discover something else.

The only fruit tea that I drink is Lipton's Mango Herbal Tea (caffiene free); it helps the bloating.

I have a couple of ways:
1. Coco Krispies (dry or with soy milk) 2. ADBs- the YUMMIEST chocolatiest yummness ever 3. Alpro soy chocolate dessert (I dunk gingersnaps into it and eat it off them..yummy!)
I agree that the marshmallows don't give the right fix but some of the above should help.

Ugh, marshmallows are gross. Each to his own.
I am afraid to try the chocolate milks. It took a lot to get used to plain soy milk on my cereal. Maybe I will give it a go.
