Your mind is playing tricks on you. Plain whipped cream from a can
isn't overly sweet. I've never noticed flavored whipped cream in a
can, didn't know it existed before this and have zero interest in
finding it now that I've been informed. You're right about heavy
cream that isn't ultra-pasteurized being hard to find though. I've
been on that hunt.
