Just want to reiterate I meant to say "cinnamologus", not "cinnamogolus'.
I knew a guy who told me that he heard cinnamon reduces blood sugar, so he was eating cinnamon doughnuts to reduce his blood sugar. No joke.
I would absolutely love to see an ancient man's face at the amount of cinnamon I put in a cup of hot chocolate...
Mummy have cinnamon in them? I guess that makes them a cinnamon roll
Ceylon Cinnamon Is grown in Mexico but not allowed to be sold in the US as"cinnamon" Mexican Ceylon cinnamon has to be sold as Mexican Canela.
True Cinnamon came from Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka was called Ceylon, and before that, Serendip. European traders considered the sight of the island as an unexpected and fortunate thing, hence our word 'serendipity.
The Spanish didn't discover Turtle Island. There were millions of people living here for tens of thousands of years.
I lived in this big house with a small Cinnamon tree in front of it. The smell is very strong and can spread throughout the entire street. In fact, not only the trunk but the leaves and berries smell strong too
REAL CINNAMON COMES FROM SRI LANKA!
Cinnamon is just not a spice. It proves how old is the civilization and trade in srilanka . Even 5000 years old Egyptian mummies used it.
He who controls the spice, controls the universe.
How the first person came to harvest and consume cinnamon would probably be the story of a lunatic. It’s fascinating how so many ancient things we take for granted have such a crazy history. Great video, very interesting.
What I'm hearing here is ground cinnamon is really just sawdust. Pleasant tasting sawdust. I love it. I enjoyed the video and am excited to watch more!
When I visited Sri Lanka I toured what they called a medicinal garden. In it they had lots of spice plants. It was the first I had even thought about where certain spices came from.
In India, cardamom is the spice that is mostly used in sweets and associated with sweets/ sweet drinks like cardamom milk, lassi, chai etc.
Learning about the history of food makes you appreciate it more and it even tastes better when you think of all that hard work that went into it before consuming
I have the true cinnamon growing in my yard. Just as folk use the bay leaf in cooking the fresh or dried cinnamon leaves work very well also without cutting down the tree.
Is it just me, or does the Cinnamogalus sound like the coolest cereal mascot ever?
I only ingest cinnamon in its unparalleled form... toast crunch
