Reasons for eating desserts and sweets 

Dessert balances out a meal and gives “closure” to the meal.

  Eating dessert is an opportunity to experience different flavors and textures that you cannot get in other foods like vegetables, meats, and fruits.

  Dessert can be an opportunity to be creative. You can make interesting mixtures that you otherwise may not have thought of. 

 Dessert isn’t “fattening”. Remember, there is no such thing as a fattening food 

 It will make you feel like a kid again.. Forget anti-aging creams or long and sweaty workout sessions at the gym, the fastest way to recapture your youth, or embrace a more youthful spirit is to eat like a kid 

 It is romantic. Desserts are designed for romance. After all, you can’t really order a salad with two forks. But, when it comes to cake, that is a different matter.
