Cinnamon Synonym - Adam

Cinnamon... what is it? Many a night I have stayed up tossing and turning over this question...

when someone says something tastes like cinnamon do you really know what taste they are referring to?
Allow me to explain my extreme frustration and confusion with this strange substance known as "Cinnamon"
There are two types of cinnamon...yes that is right it actually has two tastes and it isn't like they taste somewhat similar, oh no, the two tastes of cinnamon are about as similar as LeBron and Jordan (one sucks the other is amazing)
  1. Cinnamon #1: or as I will refer to it henceforth to eliminate confusion "CinnaBron" cinnaBron is the cinnamon used in things like Big Red Gum, Hot Tamales, and Crest Cinnamon Rush. notice something about all of those product's packaging? they all have some sort of reference to fire in them. Why because cinnaBron is a hot spicy cinnamon it doesn't taste good and if you are expecting the other cinnamon you will be unbelievably disappointed (much like how LeBron leaves you feeling when you were expecting Michael)
  2. Cinnamon #2: Now this is what I'm talking about this is the cinnamon we all know and love. this cinnamon is used in delicious foods such as cinnamon rolls, cinnamon toast crunch, and Cinnamelt. This cinnamon is tasty and when ever I ask for something cinnamon flavored this is the cinnamon I am referring to. It is superior in every way.
Do I think it is a cruel joke for the high ups in the food industry to name two contradicting flavors the same thing? yes. Is there anything I can do about it? no. Well not exactly I do have one of the top 10 most viewed blogs on the internet at my finger tips (its actually the most viewed) and with it a chance to change and fix the world to exactly the way it should be (the way I see it). I will use the media outlet to express my interest in changing the name of the hot spicy overrated cinnamon to cinnaBron while leaving the other to keep the name cinnamon.

These two tastes should have never been named the same thing the world has messed it all up and once again I am left to clean up the mistakes of our forefathers. It is a dirty job but someone has to do it.

I would say I'm open to other name suggestions for the two cinnami but this looks like a pretty open and closed case.

You're Welcome

    This blog (although informative) Cinnasucks. Comparing LBJ and MJ by means of cinnamon? Really? And does the first cinnamon really suck? Big Red has been around a long time and has established itself as a fan favorite and classic in the gum world, so is it more like MJ? Same for hot tamales. "I don't talk about sports in my blogs, that's Brian." Fail. You have to vent about LBJ in 1 way or another b/c you can't let it die, and using cinnamon as your means cinnadiculous. Good day.

    This blog isn't about comparing James to Jordan it is about the mystery of how cinnamon can't have two tastes...I don't see you explaining it...

    Then stop sneaking in comparisons, shots, and references to MJ and LBJ in a cinnamon blog.

    Funny how it isn't about LeBron, but you name the first cinnamon "CinnaBron" and have it highlighted in red. Weird how that worked out.
