Maddening when people do things like that. Sugar is SO ubiquitous in life that most people just can't conceive of avoiding it, it seems.

What has worked for me when people are just obnoxious about pushing it on me - even when I explain I'm diabetic! - is to tell them that I am just like an alcoholic with sugar -- a "little bit" is too much, and never enough. Most people understand the analogy.
