Candy bar
A candy bar is a type of candy that is in the shape of a bar. The most common type of candy bar is the chocolate bar, including both bars made of solid chocolate and combination candy bars, which are candy bars that combine chocolate with other ingredients, such as nuts, caramel, nougat, or wafers. Many varieties of candy bars exist, and many are mass-produced. Between World War I and the middle of the 20th century, approximately 40,000 brands of candy bars were introduced.

Candy making includes the preparation of many various candies, such as hard candies, jelly beans, gumdrops, taffy, liquorice, cotton candy, chocolates and chocolate truffles, dragées, fudge, caramel candy, and toffee. Candy is made by dissolving sugar in water or milk to form a syrup, which is boiled until it reaches the desired concentration or starts to caramelize. The type of candy depends on the ingredients and how long the mixture is boiled.

Convenience food
Convenience food, also called tertiary processed food, is food that is commercially prepared (often through processing) to optimise ease of consumption. Such food is usually ready to eat without further preparation. It may also be easily portable, have a long shelf life, or offer a combination of such convenient traits. Although restaurant meals meet this definition, the term is seldom applied to them. Convenience foods include ready-to-eat dry products, frozen foods such as TV dinners, shelf-stable foods, prepared mixes such as cake mix, and snack foods.
Additif alimentaire
Les additifs alimentaires sont des produits ajoutés aux denrées alimentaires commerciales (notamment aliments industriels) destinés à l'alimentation humaine et/ou animale. Pour les animaux, on parle en Europe d'« additifs zootechniques », qui comprennent notamment le groupe fonctionnel des « améliorateurs de digestibilité ». Il peut s'agir de produits d'origine naturelle, ou de produits de synthèse. Il ne faut pas confondre les additifs alimentaires avec les auxiliaires technologiques.
Malnutrition
La malnutrition est un état physiopathologique résultant de l'influence combinée de la sur- ou sous-nutrition (déficience ou excès de calories ou d’un ou plusieurs nutriments) et d'autres facteurs (génétiques, inflammatoires...) sur la composition du corps et sur ses fonctions biologiques. Son origine peut être une quantité de nourriture inadaptée au besoin (apport calorique insuffisant ou excessif) ou l'ingestion d'aliments de mauvaise qualité (carences nutritionnelles ou excès de sucre, de protéines, de sel, de graisses.
Sweetened beverage
A sweetened beverage is any beverage with added sugar. It has been described as "liquid candy". Consumption of sweetened beverages has been linked to weight gain, obesity, and associated health risks. According to the CDC, consumption of sweetened beverages is also associated with unhealthy behaviors like smoking, not getting enough sleep and exercise, and eating fast food often and not enough fruits regularly. A number of studies suggest that there is a significant correlation between increased consumption of sweetened beverages and weight gain leading to obesity.
Cookie (cuisine)
Un cookie (en Europe) ou biscuit aux pépites de chocolat (au Québec) ou chocolate chip cookie (aux États-Unis) est un petit biscuit rond traditionnel de la cuisine des États-Unis, avec des brisures ou pépites de chocolat. Le mot anglais vient du néerlandais (petit biscuit), introduit aux États-Unis par les colons hollandais de La Nouvelle-Amsterdam. C'est un terme utilisé en Amérique du Nord pour désigner toutes sortes de biscuits secs. Dans les autres pays anglophones on utilise le mot .
Chocolat au lait
Milk chocolate is a form of solid chocolate containing cocoa, sugar and milk. It is the most consumed type of chocolate, and is used in a wide diversity of bars, tablets and other confectionery products. Milk chocolate contains smaller amounts of cocoa solids than do dark chocolates, and (as with white chocolate) contains milk solids. While its taste (akin to chocolate milk) and texture have been key to its popularity, milk chocolate has historically also been promoted as a healthy food, particularly for children, and recent evidence has shown that it may provide antioxidant health benefits.
