Generally I'd hesitate to buy people sugar, alcohol, tobacco, drugs, video games, dvd collections, etc. It might upset the balance of their relationship with those things. A lot of people struggle with that stuff. So if you give me a box of chocolates, a case of beer, a carton of cigarettes, a bag of weed, the latest Call of Duty, or a Game of Thrones boxed set, I'll thank you politely and then dump it. I don't enjoy doing that one bit but it beats eating/drinking/smoking/playing/watching stuff that I'd otherwise deliberately refrain from.
