Sweet and Savory
I hate this word.
I'm a native English speaker (US) and hear this often, for instance "We have a selection of savory snacks available for purchase."
To me this is ambiguous when you consider all the various meanings of the word 'savory'. I know some people assume/presume it just means "non-sweet" but there are a hell of a lot of things that some people would consider savory that have sugar.
BBQ chips, BBQ-flavored beef-jerky both often have tons of sugar in them.
