  Say,,,Anybody live close to a rural king store? Some time ago, I bought a couple of bottles of Cinnamon Sugar by Baker's Select at the local TSC store.  I been liking a teaspoon with my coffee. That way, I can get my caffene and some cinnamon that supposssed to be good for you. I went yesterday as I had run out and they tell me they only had it as a seasonal item,,,,,,WTH,,,?? The Mgr told me that she thinks Rural King carries it. Anybody got an idee,,??

We had a container that was Kroger brand (big chain grocery concern in our area); I got addicted to cinnamon toast and soon ran out.
When I asked the wife to pick up some more, she told me to just make my own --- and I did just that.
I put about one part cinnamon to three parts pure cane sugar, mixed it well, and dumped it in the shaker; my homemade blend suits me better than the store-bought did.

As for pure cane sugar, for several years, we have been using "Zulka  Morena  Pure Cane Sugar", it comes in a 4-lb see-thru plastic bag and I think she gets it at Walmart (I HATE that place and never go in one myself; I had the sad misfortune of working in one a few years ago and it was an eye-opening experience; it is no wonder half the stuff you buy is broken in the box)

Anyhow, last fall, they opened a big new Rural King a couple counties over from us.
The wife went and checked it out and bought more stuff than she could haul; TSC in that town will soon be boarded up.
Thinking we could save some money, she got a 10-pound bag of their Farmer's Select Pure Cane Sugar for less that the 4-pound bag of the Morena that we had been using.
It takes three spoons of the Farmer's Select to get close to the taste of two spoons of the Morena; and, the Farmer's Select is all clumped up and refuses to pour out of anything smaller than a large mouth container; I beat and progue and loosen it up and the next time I reach for it it is all clumped up again; we never have that problem with the Morena.
Needless to say, once we finally got that ten-pound bag gone, we went back to the Morena.

Hmmm.....if two different brands of pure cane sugar taste different, somebody is lying!  Clumping, that's another thing.  But put simply, refined cane sugar is refined cane sugar.

Hey Joe, click on Steve's link.  Then to the right of the picture you will see some writing and at the bottom of the writing you will see in blue "See Details", click on that and it takes you to the actual ebay listing.

I puts some pure cane sugar ina bowl, and ad some cininmom...ciminon...cinninmom...well chit...you know...that brown stuff, and stir it til it looks good, may hafta keep adding some of that brown stuff til it looks good, can buy it in BIG containers and should be nuff to last a year or better. I keep a big bottle of it for when I make French toast and sprinkle some on it too. after mixing it, put in an air tight jar so it don't clump up.

I don't know if we can put up with the shammers for another 100 years or so.  I think about 98 or 99 might be about the limit.

Big smile

Look out now Chas......you're a marked man!!  You'll have em BOTH after your scalp!

I always made my own too.  Just keep puttin in the cinnamon until the color looks right to you.  I've never measured.  I like it on toast in the mornings.  Goes on waffles, pancakes, toast and cereal.  And of course, in your coffee.  I just like plain cinnamon in my coffee though, I can't stand sugar in coffee,,,,

Be careful with too much cinnamon,  it has been known to cause very low blood sugar.
