I wonder how much sugar craving depends on age. As a child I would happily eat spoonfuls of plain sugar. Children seem much happier eating candy, etc. than adults. I wonder if sugar provides some additional value to children.

So when adults say, 'I discovered I didn't need as much sugar', maybe they, like the children, are just following their biological urges.

I did a very quick look for research on the question but didn't find anything.
