There are honey cured meats and sugar seems to do the same thing as salt. I don't think I've seen anyone say sugar pickles. Anyone know? Yes, I googled it.

Til. Never heard of this style before.

I am not sure what chemical process is happening to know if sugar would work the same or just end up feeding bacteria.
