There's a Greek cookie that you make in a cone shape, and pop a clove in at the top.

I happen to not like cloves, but when we'd make them w my Greek immigrant grandma - I'd get extra yucked out about the cloves. ???

Turned out I finally remembered my sort of gruff dentist as a kid - used to put clove oil on my gums, tooth.
Aha! No wonder I felt unease, bad memories!
