The preferences for individual products are as varied as the people themselves, but Germans agree on one thing: sweets and snacks are enjoyed both in the company of others and alone.

Sweet treats such as chocolate, cookies, sweets or fruit gums "I like to enjoy them with others" say 44% of respondents. The answer "I enjoy both alone and with others" was chosen by 34%. A total of 22% of respondents opted for the statement "No, I prefer to eat them alone".

The picture is similar for snacks, which include potato potato chips, pretzel sticks and nuts, although more respondents said they "enjoy eating snacks with others" (47%). The answer "I enjoy snacks both alone and with others" was chosen by 36%. A total of 17% of respondents opted for the statement "No, I prefer to eat them alone".
