Wholeheartedly agree with you there. In the Netherlands, most families celebrate Sint Nicolaas (or just Sinterklaas), a name clearly in relation with the famous Santa Clause, on December 5th. You'd be surprised to see how early the accompanying sweets are available in the supermarket. This time as early as (I believe) September.
