This is my 5th or 6th attempt and I am only day 12, but yes every time I have quit, the coffee and sweets definitely come into play. Especially the sweets! I probably ate more candy than some kids this Halloween! I drink coffee consistently regardless, but oddly sweets don't tend to appeal to me if I am engaged in active alcoholism. Guess it's no coincidence many AA meetings are stocked with free coffee and candy.
