At your age (17): At your age age - it's okay! The issue, despite folklore to the contrary, is not the sugar per se. It's the calories. If you're normal weight, eating a bag of cotton candy now and then is one of the pleasures of being 17! If you're overweight, you'd be wise to limit yourself. Doesn't matter if it's cotton candy or McDonalds, etc.
