To think there are few meals that aren't improved

By adding lashings of cinnamon: porridge, weetabix, apple crumble, curry, stir fry etc

Aibu?

Am quite surprised at the number of people who hate cinnamon. I think it goes well with apples, but that's just my opinion. Everyone likes different things.

I love cinnamon. But not on my cheese and pickle toastie.

Yabu

Cinnamon is the worst and I'm always so disappointed when I bite in to some apple pie to be overwhelmed with the stuff 😷

I detest cinnamon.

Expected cheese 🧀
Or at the very least Yorkshire Pudding

Cinnamon is just a bastard. I would banish it along with coriander, cardamom, nutmeg and cloves.

You should live in Australia. They go massively overboard on cinnamon.
Also vanilla. You can't buy fresh custard there that isn't vanilla flavoured

I also thought cheese

Move to the US op, everything has cinnamon in it. I used to think I quite liked cinnamon, but actually it is disgusting

Curiously Cinnamon cereal is utterly delicious on it's own, but otherwise, I'm not overwhelmed by the need to add it to everything. Tagines need it.

Smoked paprika, however...

Cinnamon is just a bastard

I love cinnamon, but I can think of many meals that wouldn't be improved by it - egg and chips, beans on toast, fish pie, shepherd's pie, beef and ale stew, most soups, the list goes on.

Fresh custard is vanilla flavoured

Surely 'lashings' is a term that should only be used for liquid type foodstuffs?

I'd be so grateful if someone else cooked for a change that I'd happily eat cinnamon in whatever they prepared. Even sprinkled in a sandwich [fed up of cooking]

WTAF are you talking about OP, get out!

Cinnamon is awful but goes okay on apple things and surprisingly well in a tomato sauce. That's all. Anything solely cinnamon flavoured should be put in the bin.

Cinnamon is everywhere now, surely an American thing? I hate it and never tasted it in bought foods until about ten years ago. I blame American coffee chains, they like cinnamon in all their cakes and pastries. Horrible stuff!

Hate cinnamon.

Love cheese.

YABU. A tiny punch in sweet dishes is allowed. Cinnamon should never go anywhere near savoury.

Cheese is the answer, btw. Jam and cheese sandwich!

A pinch, definitely not a punch!!

Yuk. Keep your cinnamon away from my food. Cinnamon should be banned! (Shudder)

I prefer Birds custard. Vanilla custard is a bit much. Especially when combined with cinnamon-contaminated apple puddings.

A little cinnamon is great in the lamb sauce for moussaka. I'm also very partial to a cinnamon and raisin bagel. I don't see it as a US thing. It's always been popular in Europe.

Cinnamon wasn't exactly the answer I was thinking of.

oh gasp0de I came on here to say the very same thing re the moussaka
