A member asked:
I heard too much cinnamon can be dangerous. i had a couple tablespoons in applesauce. should that be ok?

Yes: The problem is the "cinnamon challenge, " wherein foolish people try to eat a tablespoon of dry cinnamon, usually filming their attempt for posting on social media. Don't do this, but enjoy this wonderful spice in foods and pastries. Good luck, and good eating!
