Whew, i'm glad i don't live in the south. I'm just not that into 
sweet stuff. (i do love hot stuff, though)

In Indonesia all coffee and tea are made ahead of time and presweetened.

When i was there with an intensive language program (we were for the 
most part in grad school or already teaching and getting ready to do 
research), most of us would ask for unsweetened coffee or tea. The 
Indonesians had difficulty providing it, since it was already 
prepared.

When one of the students got hepatitis, the Indonesians shook their 
heads, tsk-tsk'd, and said it was because "kurang makan gula" - 
didn't eat enough sugar.
