Comment: I had this allergy in college when I bought a big multi-pak of fire [Ed note: brand name removed] gum…it is the ARTIFICIAL CINNAMON FLAVORINGS that cause this reaction, not real cinnamon.
Many people take cinnamon for blood sugar balancing…please don’t blame the real herb when it is the artificial chemical disguised as cinnamon that causes the radical inflammation in some people. It even caused my taste buds to turn into spike cone shape and HURT a lot !!! So it’s serious, but not real cinnamon. -EM in PA
