Safe for human consumption!"

    One reason why cinnamon taste hot is because it activates the heat sensors in your mouth, alcohol has a similar effect in which it makes the heat sensors more sensitive, that's why it burns going down. I'm going to guess the combination of these two factors makes that incredibly warm going down.

    Jack Daniels Fire is actually nice & usually cheaper than Fireball here in Australia.

    "I don't know if it needed to be done... but it was" could be the tagline for everything alcoholic ever made.

    I bought a miniature bottle of fireball once. To me it just tasted like cinnamon flavoured mould. I took a couple of sips and poured the rest down the drain. 1/100 from me.

    i don't know about the rest of the European countries but you can buy it in Denmark so if it was EU regulations banning it then they must be gone or there is a difference between the EU and US Fireball

    They also use water in antifreeze but it isn't banned yet, it's as if there's no further connection there.
