      Yes they can become addicted to chocolate! It has a number of substances in that can cause you to become addicted including tryptophan. However, some people say these are also found in food people dont tend to say they get addicted to like brocolli so there is a little debate about it! I think it is more likely a sugar addiction.

      I think its possible to get addicted to virtually anything, and chocolate is a favourite of many people, so yes I think you can get addicted to eat, pretty easily.
