Why does candy make
you thirsty
By Caleb Luke and Trenton
When
you eat candy you get thirsty because the candy takes the space so the water
cannot get where it needs to go.
Most candy is made with lots of sugar, a crystal that
absorbs water, dehydrating you. Eating sweets will cause your blood sugar to raise
causing thirst.
A normally pleasant sour or bitter food can taste
unpleasantly sour or bitter if taken after a mouthful of very sweet food.
