Is there such a thing as "Sugar (or food) Addiction"?

Aaarrrrrrhhhhhhh! I'm kind of upset right now because I see how Satan is so cleverly trying to lead us all into self destruction. He is using all the weapons he can think of - including FOOD! People's health now a days is a mess and most of it can be tracked down to the way they eat (high cholesterol, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, bone problems, even depression and cancer are related to what we eat...). And now Satan is trying to make us believe that there's no such thing as sugar addiction or food addiction, and that it is OK to "indulge" a little in whatever it is that we're craving.

Sure!!! I say. Go ahead and eat those things that you know (in fact, you've proven) will make you feel sick and loose control. (sarcastic tone).
Earlier this week we went to our Church's Trunk or Treat. We took some non-member friends and as I was explaining that I don't eat things that have sugar, one of them said: "No one should abstain completely from something they crave. Otherwise they are just setting themselves up for failure. As long as you eat just a little bit here and a little bit there you'll be OK."
To which I replied (in a very friendly way): "Sugar has a really negative effect on me. It gives me insomnia, makes me feel depressed, gives me stomach aches, and makes me have really negative thoughts about myself. The reason I know I'm addicted to it is because I can't have JUST a little bit here and there. When I have sugar and want more, and more, and I'm not at peace until whatever it is that has sugar is GONE! Sugar is bad for me, and just a little bit of it wouldn't help my life in any way.
It's just like someone who is addicted to alcohol. They can't take not even one ounce of alcohol. They need to stay away from it, period."
Now, this is not why I'm upset (like I wrote in the beginning of this post). I'm upset because I just received a magazine from AFFA (fitness) and on the cover you read: "Are you addicted to sugar?" and I was all excited about reading an article that would expose the dangers of indulging in sugar. But instead they have an article that affirms that scientific research shows that there's no such thing as sugar or food addiction, and that if people are craving chocolate they should go ahead and eat just a little bit.

PEOPLE, if sugar is a poison to you, then even just a little bit will be BAD for you.
Drugs are bad for you and if you crave drugs you still should not take drugs. Pornography is bad for you and even just a little bit will hurt you spiritually (not to mention that it'll hurt those who love you and area close to you).
I've read sooooo many books, blogs, and articles that explain in detail how sugar is an addictive substance, and how it is poisonous. I'm not going to spend the time listing them all here though. I believe that if someone is really interested in learning more about a certain subject, then they should put forth the effort and time themselves in gathering the information they need.
So people (articles, friends, acquaintances, magazines, scientists, etc) don't tell me that there's no such thing as sugar addiction please.
I know I am addicted to sugar, I know I shouldn't partake of it if I want to feel at peace with myself and stay healthy. And I know A LOT OF PEOPLE who are addicted to sugar as well.  Some recognize it, others don't.
