Tried this at work last night and now I don't think I will be able to eat anything with cinnamon in it ever.

Now someone has challenged a few of us to either eat a pound of butter or drink a 2 liter bottle of diet coke without burping(impossible). We will see how this goes.
 
Never tried any of those, but I heard the cinnamon one is really dangerous. Have tried the Saltine cracker challenge though. Lost.
 
So...what is the cinnamon challenge exactly?
I think you need to eat a tablespoon full of cinnamon. You can probably youtube it. I did hear that it could be dangerous too. I think it's just a waste of good cinnamon.
 
Sri Lankan "true" cinnamon? Or common Cassia cinnamon? Cassia is much harsher.
Either way it's not really a good idea.
 
BEST Cinnamon challenge video EVER:



The remix rendition that is the vid about spittin. (even funnier IMO)


Man that re-mix killed me, I was crying I was laughing so hard. My wife was like WTF are watching, I had the volume cranked to hear it over the ball game, the audio alone is hilarious.
 
LOL. People probably think Cinnamon is the sugary stuff you get in a Cinnabon. In fact, it's strong shyt as a raw ingredient.
 
Hopefully you were at/near the end of your shift...
No. It was in the middle of shift. They are twelve hour shifts and it was the middle of the night.

Last night our idiot newbie said he can drink a gallon of milk without throwing up. He failed....

Your throat immediately closes up. I also read somewhere that it could collapse a lung.
 
Last thing I want to do is be a party pooper but I know a friend that tried that and he had to get lung surgery in the er after one of his lungs collapsed. Not a good party vibe when one of your homies almost dies like that.


Chugging beer, taking a few shots are the way to go.

There is a way to do it without gaging though, never try to swallow it dry, when you get it in your mouth make sure your mouth is wet with saliva so it is absorbed. Another trick is drinking water before and trying to not look like you have water in your mouth before putting a spoon ful of cinnamon in your mouth.
