Cinnamon Challenge The "Cinnamon Challenge" is a supposedly impossible challenge in which one must take a full tablespoon of cinnamon and swallow it whole without spitting any of the cinnamon out. However, because of cinnamon's powdery texture, it tends to stick to the saliva in the contestant's mouth and throat, causing said contestant to gag. The extremely strong taste of cinnamon in such a large quantity generally causes the contestant to become sick. Contestants also have a hard time breathing for about two minutes after completing the challenge. The Cinnamon Challenge gained notoriety on the internet no later than April, 2005. As of November, 2007, videos of people partaking in the cinnamon challenge are still popular on internet video sites, such as Ebaumsworld, and they continue to receive views exceeding 300,000. As a note of reference, it has been stated that a teaspoon dose of cinnamon is poisons to the human body. There has not been any confirmation of this however, and is to be considered an urban legend.
