Be careful, Brie's twin! Actually there are two types of "cinnamon" plants, the true ceylon cinnamon, <i>Ceylon zeylanicum</i>, and Cassia "cinnamon" <i>Cinnamomum aromaticum</i>, which has a more appealing name but really is an entirely different plant from true cinnamon. They do have great similarities chemically, though and much of what is sold in stores is this type. You can tell the difference by looking at the way the cinnamon stick rolls. If it's one roll like a scroll, that's the true stuff, and if it curls in from both edges, it's the <i>Cinnamomum</i>.<br /><br />Ok, we now end this Nerdbreak.Cammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18181004571609998125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6957758174408171291.post-21274559191353090482009-10-20T21:41:19.386-06:002009-10-20T21:41:19.386-06:00hm.. of all the challenges.. i would not try this ...hm.. of all the challenges.. i would not try this one..<br /><br />watched a couple of friends try the 6 saltine crackers in 60 seconds though.. at least it's not spicy.. but that one can also definitely not be done.jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01147914623656314464noreply@blogger.com
