Cinnamon ready to process..

I went to buy milk the other day and my neighbor was whacking these sticks together. In one pile were the ones that had the outer bark scraped off. The next pile were ones being whacked together up and down the length of the stick. Then the inner back is peeled off for drying. I had no idea cinnamon grew here

Don't laugh - I've seen cinnamon wood toothpicks, made from the roots of the tree. They have a slightly sweet fragrance like cinnamon flavoured candy rather than the fragrance of the bark.

a whole new industry...
