How often do you eat dessert?

Do you consider dessert a special treat - or do you have some every day? 

In this supposedly health-conscious day and age, consumption of dessert is on the rise for a lot of us. In a recent survey, 40% of Americans say they indulge at least twice a week - a four percent increase in just three years. And it’s not just for after dinner anymore. Thanks to the hand-held variety, many consumers admit to eating dessert-like treats morning, noon or night - or even as a substitute for a meal. Another dessert trend on the rise is sharing. Restaurant customers say they’re more likely to order dessert with multiple forks or if mini portions are available.
