Everlasting Candy

Everyone loves candy and physics can make the candy eating experience longer! Physicists did a study with hard candy and found that the candy dissolves linearly. This means that the rate in which it dissolves stays constant instead of accelerating at any point. Therefore, if you keep each candy in your mouth without biting on it, each piece should last about twenty five minutes. This shocked me cause one tiny skittle doesn't feel right to take almost 30 minutes to eat. From this experiment, I think physics can answer many real life questions but I doubt I'll take that long to eat candy at any time in my life!
