I love the smell.. Same with the Auntie Anne's or whatever the pretzel place is.. Haven't ever eaten at either one.

my wife and I eat almost exclusively organic and are health nuts, and are in excellent shape but everyone has some "cheat" food. Mine is pizza, hers is cinnabon. You don't like the smell of cinnamon and melted butter with warm frosting?

It tastes just like it smells - a mixture of sugar and grease.

Someone mentioned a buttery smell - I would be surprised if Cinnabon uses any actual butter in their products.

Yes- thank you- that's what it is. It smells greasy and artificial. I love real cinnamon, too.

Oh yes- and I didn't mean to imply that I always eat healthy! Real toast with real butter and cinnamon, or homemade cinnamon rolls do indeed smell heavenly.

You put me in the weird position of defending something that I don't even partake in. This is from their website:

Cinnabon® Classic Roll
Warm dough, legendary Makara® Cinnamon, topped with rich cream cheese frosting.

You got your Mimi's confused. This isn't the one in Green Ridge which was the French themed breakfast place, this is the Japanese hibachi place

No biggie, you've broken so many scoops over the years, you're allowed the occasional slip up.
