I have no problems with sugars or "unhealthy" desserts; I absolutely love chocolate. I just have a problem with the portion size, which seems to have doubled or even tripled in the US from what it was not too long ago and it is going the same route in Europe lately. This is not just for desserts, this goes for EVERYTHING. Drinks, meals, snacks, the lot.
Check out these stories about portion size.
