Why doesn't cinnamon dissolve?

It does not dissolve in the conventional sense, as table salt dissolves in water.

If you accidentally add too much cinnamon to your chili (some shakers just dump right out on you) here's what you can do to rescue your recipe:

  • First, if you haven't mixed in the cinnamon yet, gently spoon out any clumps.
  • Now, start by adding balsamic vinegar -- up to a tablespoon per quart of chili. The acidity will counteract the cinnamon nicely.
  • If that's not enough, add up to a tablespoon of lime juice -- you may need to repeat these steps depending how much cinnamon there is.
  • Add some water and tomato paste to further balance out the flavors; you will probably need more chili powder and other seasoning to taste.
  • Rejoice! Your chili's flavor has gone from overpowering to wonderful!

Can dogs eat cinnamon?

Yes. Cinnamon is fine for Dogs. It is Chocolate & Peanut butter that will hurt them.

  • Peanut butter is fine for dogs in small amounts. The bad part about it is that it is filled with fat and oils which could not only make Fluffy fat but also give him a tummy ache, like a little kid who ate too much candy.
  • Chocolate is poisonous to dogs. I have heard of owners giving small amounts of chocolate as in a Kiss occasionally without adverse effects but if a moderate to large amount is ingested the dog WILL DIE if not brought to a vet IMMEDIATELY.
  • Cinnamon is simply a spice used to flavor. In small amounts it will not harm your dog. Besides, what crazy dog would eat anything covered in large amounts of cinnamon? That's like a dog that loves hot sauce... times ten. (Think Altoids or Big Red gum or just search "cinnamon challenge" on YouTube)
