I'd thought I'd share this because the first time I saw it I was toasted and laughed for about 30-45 minutes. Supposedly It is impossible to completely swallow even a tablespoon of plain cinnamon (without sugar added) fully in one sitting. These two verify that myth: <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gcjm7rQh1HU"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gcjm7rQh1HU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> I think I'm going to get really high and try it myself this weekend with some friends and video tape it.
haha, that's great! I wonder of that has been submitted to Mythbusters? I've never actually seen this before so thanks for posting it....I will for SURE! I have to try this myself haha sounds very interesting.
Well even if they did it on mythbusters, the only way to test it is to try to do it... and would be a 10 second episode.
Im sure they would come up with some way to stretch it out, try it with a bunch of people, try it with different spices, stuff like that.
Let's see.... *eats cinnamon and starts convulsing and foaming at the mouth* i would try it in stick form, i wonder if that makes a difference
I'm pretty sure the powder is what makes it impossible to swallow because of how dry it makes your mouth. It has to do with you not being able to produce enough saliva or break it down with liquids or something. The same thing goes for saltine crackers, they say you can't eat like 6 or so in less than a minute.
You cant eat a slice of bread in a minute, without a drink. Im sure someone somewhere could but i bet you you cant

you could do it if you bit your tongue a bit to get your saliva glands gushing like mad then drop the tsp. under your tongue to get it all caked up squeeze the tongue a few more times and swallow
I just tried this, and I honestly ate the whole slice in 25 seconds. It was a normal slice of white bread, is there some other rule?
^ dude if its white bread I can eat 5 at a time and I'm only 130ish 6ft its almost all air...now if you're talking french or italian rye or grain yeah you're ass is gonna be choaking on seeds or wheat husks n shit without a drink
