I suppose as one progresses more easterly through Turkey and beyond, the spicing becomes more prominent?
It is interesting though, because I don't feel like cinnamon itself is sweet. Or nutmeg. I used nutmeg in a lot of things I make with ground meat because I like the flavor but it doesn't seem sweet to me. Though I have to admit I've never eaten much apple pie so my taste memory and experience may be different.
