sweet tooth  
 
 
 
Definition: A great love for candy and sugar. 

Example: 1) Susan's sweet tooth is unbelievable - she ate four chocolate
 bars in one hour!  

Etymology: This is an old phrase, dating back to the 1300s. In the 
phrase, 'tooth' refers to appetite or the thing that is chewed, rather 
than the tooth itself.
