Is it dangerous if consumed it large quantities and just how large would that have to be? What about types Ceylon, Saigon Cassia and Vietnamese cinnamon which I think taste strongest.
You believe everything you read on the net, 50 of this half dozen of that. Bakers would know the differences and which works best.http://www.livestrong.com/article/445647-is-too-much-cinnamon-bad-for-you/

Chamomile tea will highlight blonde hair and help to induce sleep. It can relax the nervous soul! 8).................. Most of the time the tea was chamomile base with the spice..............
Seems to me you're asking subjective questions to subjective people to determine whetherI know what I read but true cinnamon never used. Some said its weak tasting, some taste isn't like other cinnamons while others think its great. Trying to find out if its worth the price and are the dangers real or bull.
Cassia vs Ceylon, two different flavors. Cassia has a "pronounced bite" where Ceylon offers a lemony smoothness that goes well with beef dishes. As to which one offers more flavor imho is a toss up. Subjective as it were.Most of the cinnamon you buy at the grocery store is Cassia bark. It has less flavor then say....Ceylon......
There are differences but unless you are looking are easy to miss (I am talking about baking as it is diluted down greatly when used for this purpose)First of all, I had no idea there were two cinnamons (cassia and true) so this has been a very educational post for me. But now that I know, how do I tell?
Are the containers labeled as such or are there definitive characteristics of each so I can tell on sight?
As for eating enough to do harm, it would seem one would have to eat spoonfuls of spices to suffer and I can't see anyone doing that on purpose.
Of course, there are always those who enjoy seeing who can eat the hottest peppers or hot sauce.
There is a video on Youtube called something like
"Ten ghost peppers in ten minutes." Needless to say, the individual is not successful. I'd post a link but I'm not very good with that.
Here at this thread is the very first time I'm seeing the term "true cinnamon" ever. Never heard of it. All of the cinnamons that I know are cited at MySpiceSage.com and Penzeys.com: Ceylon and Cassia or Saigon.First of all, I had no idea there were two cinnamons (cassia and true) so this has been a very educational post for me.
