I really love cinnamon. It's great for nausea, incidentally.
I had no idea, though, re: the amount of fiber in 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon. Can you believe that 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon has 3.69g fiber. What a surprise.
Just wanted to share something I found amusing.

Well, since cinnamon is ground tree bark it's not too surprising that it is high in fiber. It is also reported to help with blood sugar and cholesterol.
