✓ Guess I'm really fond of chocolate and I especially enjoy the ones with nuts, for example almonds and raisins.
The word 'chocolates' is plural but generally 'chocolate' is used as an uncountable noun when referring to the substance or food in general. Also, 'nuts' should be plural without 'the' because it refers to nuts in general, not specific ones.
× Yes, as a kid I eat a lot of chocolate.
✓ Yes, as a kid I ate a lot of chocolate.
The sentence refers to a past time ('as a kid'), so the verb should be in the past tense 'ate' instead of the present tense 'eat'.
× For example, I got a lot of cavities that I had to go to dentist for.
✓ For example, I got a lot of cavities that I had to go to the dentist for.
The noun 'dentist' requires the definite article 'the' when referring to a specific professional. The preposition 'to' is correctly used, but the article was missing.
