Cinnamon. I guess that's one way to spice things up!

Apparently, cinnamon is just the beginning. Single people are targets of an escalating range of "tortures." At age 30, cinnamon is replaced by pepper.
The tradition dates back hundreds of years to when spice salesmen would stay bachelors because they travelled so much.
