Via fogyasztok.hu comes news of an interesting survey recently conducted by Hungary's Association of Sweets Producers, which reveals that Hungarians much less in the way of sweets than the average European. According to the study, Magyars consume four kilograms of sugary treats per year, just more than half as much as the average of seven. What's interesting is that much of this consumption takes place in a very short period of time around the winter holidays, when the country wolfs down more than 800 tons of chocolate Santas and 5,500 tons of szaloncukor, or almost one pound per set of supposedly non-sweet-toothed Hungarian. So maybe all those ads for Hungarian dentistry aren't aimed at the British after all...
