I am of European descent, and while I had a sweet tooth in my teens, American pastries and desserts were barely edible.

Now that I'm older (and lost my desire for sweets somewhat), I wouldn't touch any of them with a 10 foot stick. They are disgustingly unfathomable to eat and whenever I tried, it upset my stomach greatly.

So are most of your soft drinks, by the way. I cut sweet teas and juices with water to 50/50 ratio and then drink it.
