Tight Lines

This will probably start some arguments...I am married to a Georgia girl, and my mom and dad grew up in Texas mostly...so this informs how and what I cook...
When I make chili or cornbread, I put sugar in both...I like cornbread to be spicy with jalapeños with a little bit of sweetness too...some sweet heat. Same with my chili...cayenne and brown sugar...I don't like sweet cornbread like cake, or chili that has a lot of sweetness...just a touch.
Now for tea, I only do half-and-half or unsweet. I don't care for tea with a lot of sugar that is super sweet.
Now my wife is different...sugar should not be in cornbread or chili, but she likes her tea pretty sweet.
I'm sure most in the South are likely like my wife...how do you folks make cornbread, chili, and tea?
