Any type of foods which are either made of simple sugars or which are converted to sugar causes cavities. The problem is when the teeth aren't properly cared for by brushing and flossing, which gives bacteria more time to feed on the sugars. Of course the higher sugar content the food is, the worse it is in terms of the potential for cavities.
