If its a part of your job to work with choc. and biscuits then the wisest thing to do would be to find a job that does not involve food. In my hunmble opinion at least.

How about brining a healthy alternative to slowly munch on during work. Chewing gum may also help.

try chewing gum until you can talk to someone about getting the food somewhere where you won't know it's there, keeping it out of sight or distract yourself with singing or making up poems or something like that..

I've worked in many different places and everywhere I go they have their candy dishes, potlucks and birthday cakes. The whole world seems to be about food and I hate it. Sorry I have no idea how to help with that problem since I can't handle it myself. Just want to let you know you're not alone.

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
