Haha drama.  "Total candy consumers had higher intakes of total energy (2248.9 kcals26.8 vs 1993.1 kcals15.1, p<0.0001) and added sugars (27.7 g0.44 vs 23.4 g0.38, p<0.0001) than non-consumers."

That's not much of a difference. If they looked at soda consumption, probably be a different story. Maybe the kids who eat candy are more active

"Performance during stretch-shortening cycle exercise is influenced by the visco-elastic properties of the muscle-tendon units. During stretching of an activated muscle, mechanical energy is absorbed in the tendon structures (tendon and aponeurosis) and this energy can subsequently be re-utilized if shortening of the muscle immediately follows the stretching. According to Biscotti (2000), 72% of the elastic energy restitution action comes from tendons, 28% - from contractile elements of muscles.
