I love cinnamon candies.
The thing is, they actually don't taste like the spice in your kitchen. Cinnamon Imperials, cinnamon toothpicks, and my favorites, Hot Tamales, they all misrepresent the spice, but they're so tasty! But my all-time favorite seems to no longer be in business: Vernell's Cinnamon Bears. Most cinnamon bears are kind of cherry-flavored, which I find off-putting with the overlay of cinnamon (you know, a weird artificial fruit flavor), but the old Vernell's tasted of nothing but that artificial cinnamon. I miss 'em.
