Do not carry a cold beverage in their presence. Politely decline any drinks or sweetmeats they may offer. Keep a plain iron nail in your left trouser pocket and a sachet or paper twist of coarse salt in your right shoe. Enter and leave your chair moving clockwise. Follow up with a thank-you note.

girls love when an old woman chance-met upon the old forest road offers them sweetmeats

it's interesting how my friends deserve hugs, endearments, sweetmeats, windfalls and my enemies deserve arbitrary state violence

5. Minced meat is meat, but mincemeat isn’t. Nor are sweetmeats, though sweetbreads are. Buffalo wings are an obvious attempt to mess with our heads. Shepherd’s pie, or so the printed ingredients claim, contains no shepherd. And don’t get me started on jelly babies. 5/6

TIL "sweetmeats" just mean candy and not a decadently braised sweet cut of pork

It’s so bizarre that sweetbreads are meat, whereas sweetmeats are often pastry.

I wonder if Dul-C's cleavers chop you into slices of cake or other sweetmeats.

中秋节快乐!

Ok this year I substituted duck fat and vegetable shortening for the lard but it still absolutely crushes non-Yunnanese mooncake imho

Donate the sweetmeats to whomsoever ye please

look it's very simple:
sweetmeats = are sweet, are NOT meat
sweetbreads = are not sweet, ARE meat

sweetmeats, mincemeat, and sweetbreads are, collectively, a linguistic crime

This All Hallow's Eve, should enterprising ragamuffins exhaust our supply of sweetmeats, lice combs, and figs, I have instructed my butler to treat the filthy little cherubs to a reading of The Turn of the Screw by Henry James. O what a contrivance of terror and delight!

Let there be joyful ringing of the bells and sweetmeats thrown to the hordes; ancient car passed its MOT.

Needlework portrait of Queen Elizabeth I, c1580, possibly originally applied to the front of a presentation purse containing sweetmeats or presents of money, the higher nobles and bishops having to present the Queen with gold coins enclosed within ornamental bags at the New Year.
