Sounds like 'charoses' (pronounced /ha-roh'-ses/), which is a delicious middle eastern melange of nuts, apples (and other fruits) and red wine, typically eaten in the U.S. by Jews at Passover (who will put anything on matzoh to improve the taste).

Wolf might say it sounds more like 'neuroses' (plural for neurosis; pronounced /noo-roh'-sees/), which is fitting because of the overlap between these types of traits and those who celebrate Passover. Hey! I can say that; you can't!
