European Socialism at its best.

LOLOLOL! “Pasties”? Sounds like an issue with strip clubs and not cinnamon rolls. Headline typos can be funny sometimes.

[Navy Patriot]

Oh no, cinnamon is poison? That explains some dumb things I’ve done.

[RayChuang88]

Look, if Asians who traditionally consume way more spices than Europeans aren't getting anywhere close to the toxicity levels as stated by the EU, then this whole law is just nanny statism at its worst....

European Socialism at its best.

It's sickening that there are adults that sit around and contemplate these things. Unfortunately over 50% of the US population is willfully and gladly marching us headlong into EU socialism. They welcome our overlords, and breathlessly await their latest proclamation on which type of lightbulb we can use, how much sodium we can ingest, or how much ethanol we must put in our gas tank.

"We're confused...did you mean pasties or pastries?"

What idiots! Raw cinnamon has tremendous health benefits:

First they came for the marijuana smokers, but I did not smoke marijuana, so I did nothing. Then they came for the cigarette smokers, but I did not smoke cigarettes. Then they came for our Big Gulps and our incandescent bulbs, but I had none, and so was silent. And then they came for our cinnamon buns, and I filled the gutters with the blood of their dead before my bullet riddled body went to it’s final rest. /s

Is this like the blood thinner stuff that they give heart patients?

[texas booster]

Looks like the EU is trying to ban cassia cinnamon and force everyone over to Ceylon cinnamon.

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.

[darkangel82]

I had a leftover cinnamon roll for breakfast. The EU can go shove it.

[BwanaNdege]

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!

[Don Corleone]

Can they still have Big Gulps of more than 16 ounces? That is an important distinction.

[Star Traveler]

What?! The women over there wear cinnamon pasties?

[catnipman]

If cinnamon is outlawed, only outlaws will have cinnamon.

[Clarence Boddicker]

I’m so sorry...at first glance I read this as “patsies” and it appeared all too clear to me!

[Kozak]

No Cinnebon at the airports...

Nanny State on Steroids PING!
