One frequent shorthand is to show someone adding huge amounts of sugar [[DrinkOrder to tea or coffee]] (sometimes to the extent of an OverlyLongGag), with a bystander looking on in horror. Another reason for an adult being obsessed with sugar can be to emphasise their [[ManChild immaturity]] (or more positively, "being in touch with their inner child").

He's also eating a twinkie when he describes the uptick in paranormal activity to Ray and Winston.
