Oh, but we can be just as sickly sweet as anybody when we put our 
minds to it:

I give you deep fried mars bars, treacle pudding, jam roly poly etc.

And I have only just cured my daughter of a most unfortunate 
addiction to wait for it - condensed milk sandwiches.

For those not in the know, condensed milk is a canned sweetened and 
thickened milk which is unpalatable to all but the sweetest of tooths.
