She needs more cinnamon to get the flavor just right.
It serves them right for laying down with these dogs.
It seems like more and more people are abusing everyday items, making them ‘dangerous’ and restricted. Stupid people will snort ANYTHING, then the rest of us can’t make cookies??
Here it’s anise. My local supermarket has a sign on the counter saying to ASK for anise at the front office. I don’t know if it’s an abuse thing, or local Italian grocers controlling access to force you to buy from their bakeries instead of making your own. I wasn’t curious enough to find out what kind of ID you had to present to acquire anise.
Cardamom is also hard to find here, and expensive online.
Cookies- now we can’t make cookies...what a world! Legalize drugs, but control spices.
Cinnamon pasties? Mmmmmmm......
I think that is cummin to which you refer.
I had a leftover cinnamon roll for breakfast. The EU can go shove it.
And they are pronounced “PAHHST ee”, which rhymes with “nasty”.
Which is what the Yoopers become if you go up there and call them “PASTE ees”.
My guess is that after Hiz Honor, da Mayor Bloomberg leaves office he will move straight to Brussels to jump into this job of banning EVERYTHING!
Pahsties are tasty!
Can they still have Big Gulps of more than 16 ounces? That is an important distinction.
I am married to a child of Yoopers who has served them to me. I must say they are an acquired taste. Even coming from a place with an array of ethnic foods as broad as Pittsburgh.
Kind of like how virtually nobody has had "real" wasabi. Usually it's just colored horseradish. The "real thing" is, again, ridiculously expensive (and rare).
What?! The women over there wear cinnamon pasties?
If cinnamon is outlawed, only outlaws will have cinnamon.
I’m so sorry...at first glance I read this as “patsies” and it appeared all too clear to me!
p.s. My grandmother who grew up in northern Michigan learned how to make pasties from her Welsh neighbors. She taught my mother how to make them. My favorite dinner (next to fried chicken) as a child.
“Is this like the blood thinner stuff that they give heart patients?”
That is Coumadin. Don’t think it has anything to do with Cinnamon!
Don’t forget the Cornish tin miners — Cousin Jacks. They had a cylinderical lunch bucket with tea in the lower portion and a pasty in the upper section. They would hang the lunch bucket on a timber with a candle holder and candle below so they would have hot tea abd pasty for lunch. There were a lot of Cousin Jacks in western mines, particularly Butte, Grass Valley, Idaho, and Arizona (Jerome and Bisbee).
Sorry, but really large doses of cinnamon, at least from those found in supplements, are unhealthy.
“If you decide to use a lot of cinnamon, “you do need to use Ceylon because it will lower your risk of liver damage,” says Ms. Ginn, who is an education coordinator at the University of Maryland Center for Diabetes and Endocrinology in Baltimore.”

This is why there is (so its claimed) there is a safer cinnamon supplement, Cinnulin PF, that does not have coumarin.
If you use a lot of cinnamon, as I do, it’s probably better to use Ceylon cinnamom. I haven’t noticed a difference in the taste, but some say the Ceylon cinnamon is bitter.
