Singular or plural?

I spotted this sentence:
"He likes to eat chocolate."
"She likes eating ice cream."

Is it correct? Should I change them into "chocolates" and "ice creams"?

Thanks in advance!

No, neither needs changing and the 2nd should not be changed. You can use 'chocolates' if you mean the little candies instead of the substance, but ice cream is uncountable.
